FBL-FRA-LIGUE1-MONACO : News Photo

It might not be official but Monaco has won the French Ligue 1 title.

This victory means that even Monaco will need a point in their match in hand against Saint-Etienne on Wednesday to take the tiltle. Even a Monaco defeat against Saint-Etienne will require Paris Saint-Germain to make up about 17+  goals to knock Monaco for the top of the Ligue 1 standings on the final day; virtually impossible. 

Congratulations to Monaco!

Relegation threat remains for Caen after being kept close to the drop zone for failing to get any point from this fixture.  

 

Metz                  1-1         Toulouse

Ismaila Sarr 66’                          Martin Braithwaite 9’

 

Toulouse missed a penalty that would have handed them the maximum points. Both teams remain equal on points but goal-difference give Toulouse a major boost in the league standings.
