As Monaco edges closer to a Champions League appearance for the first time since the 2018-2019 season, Clermont faces the grim prospect of relegation to Ligue 2.

The match saw Takumi Minamino initiate the scoring for Monaco, capitalizing on a defensive lapse to curl a precise shot into the top corner. Despite Clermont’s equalizer by Muhammed Cham, Monaco quickly regained control, with Ben Yedder orchestrating Breel Embolo’s goal before adding two of his own, bringing his total club tally to 117 goals across all competitions.

With Monaco firmly holding their second spot, attention now shifts to Brest, sitting in third place, as they strive to maintain their Champions League aspirations against Nantes. Meanwhile, Clermont’s relegation fears loom larger as they languish at the bottom of the table, with Metz narrowly avoiding their fate in a tense battle against Rennes.
