02:59for the upcoming friendlies the cross is a little bit too far in front of balagan
03:04that louis dut
03:26Good ball to Pavel Schultz, but it sat nicely.
03:33Now, Lyon come away with it. Hendrik loses his footing, though. A Kliouche. Teze has stayed up. Teze crossing towards
03:45Balogun, and again, it's a last-ditch challenge from a Lyon player, Talia Fico.
03:52We thought that Lyon might be reunited. Just watch this. This is Schultz. Pavel Schultz goes for goal, blocked by
04:01Kera. Decides against going for goal. This is A Kliouche.
04:06Now, Kamara. The shot is deflected behind. A Kliouche goes short. Golovin. Golovin clips it. It's nodded goalwards by Balogun,
04:23but Lyon Karte's head up.
04:27Bomber to A Kliouche. A Kliouche with a very tame effort. Getting away from Kamara. Hendrik left-footed, and Radecki
04:39at full stretch. This is Tolisso.
04:43So, Mongala spreads it to Moreira. Moreira, dispossessed by...
04:52Finds Mongala.
04:58Ataboa's header to Hendrik. Again, Hendrik to the byline. Oh, it's in!
05:05Pavel Schultz back in the starting 11, and back among the goals for Lyon.
05:14The Czech international brilliantly set up by Hendrik. He scores his 14th goal in all competitions this season.
05:28And Lyon, strike first here. A very important goal, and haven't Lyon missed Pavel Schultz in the last few weeks?
05:40Had to bow with the header into Hendrik. Hendrik using his right foot this time.
05:45A super cut back. And that is Pavel Schultz's 11th league goal.
05:53And Hendrik standing over the free kick. A little bit flat, the cross, this time.
06:05Moreira is quick, but Teze had about five yards on him.
06:10Oh, Teze's missed it. Now, this is Tolisso. Tolisso goes for goal off the post, and...
06:17Somehow it's wide off Hendrik. And the Brazilian didn't really have time to adjust his body there.
06:26Some kamikaze defending there from Jordan Teze, and a brilliant strike by Tolisso.
06:31A whisker away from bending this into the net.
06:39It could very easily have been 2-0 at the break to Lyon.
06:48And that is it, as far as the first half is concerned. A terrific end to the opening period for
06:54Olympique Lyonnais. They have the lead. Thanks.
06:59So, that's the end of the first...
07:03Difficult for them. Let's see what can they do.
07:23I think Granal for Monaco.
07:28Into the penalty area. Can he pick out a teammate? Not there, he can't. But Monaco still have it.
07:37Clips it left-footed. It's headed by a Monaco player, so it will be a Lyon...
07:42This is Kalis Merah.
07:46Tolisso. Tolisso's ball. Well-read by Radeki.
07:54Pavel Schultz now, trying to get away. He's stayed on his feet. Endrik now. Endrik in behind.
08:01Still Endrik. Off the line.
08:04A huge chance for Lyon. Endrik went for goal himself.
08:13And now the shot from Mangala. Back with Endrik.
08:24And Voet first puts it behind for a corner.
08:28This is brilliant from Pavel Schultz. He was being fouled.
08:31Tripped, but got back to his feet and played Endrik through.
08:35Endrik could have tried to pick out Tolisso, although Monaco did have defenders getting back.
08:46May have had his heart in his mouth for a moment there when Balogun went down in the box.
08:55Monaco threatening again with Golovin. Golovin's shot.
09:01Desperately trying to get to the ball.
09:05Oh, look at Akliouche. Akliouche in the clear. Big chance for AS Monaco.
09:09Akliouche! What a finish.
09:13Monaco draw level.
09:15Thanks to their French international Magnus Akliouche.
09:19Nobody picks up the run. In behind.
09:23And it was such a cool finish from the 24-year-old.
09:29His sixth league goal this season. It is a big one.
09:32Bringing Monaco level here.
09:39Joy for the travelling supporters. A goal almost out of nothing, really.
09:45Nobody picked up the run. It's a terrific pass from Jordan Teze.
09:51And Akliouche showing real composure. The first touch superb. The second even better.
09:57And again, the 1-2 with Balogun. This is Adingra.
10:03Adingra going for goal.
10:07Akliouche.
10:09Increasingly influential Monaco's goal scorer. Akliouche in again.
10:13Okay. Now he's had a fair tackle.
10:17Koulibaly. Akliouche has been hurt. It's a penalty.
10:20Well, the referee waited.
10:23And then decided there's no advantage. It was a foul on Akliouche.
10:27And Monaco have got a penalty.
10:31Brilliant from Akliouche. Just playing the 1-2 with Balogun.
10:37Balogun used his strength superbly well. Let's have a look at the challenge on Akliouche.
10:44He's caught by Tolisso.
10:47Tolisso is just behind Magnus Akliouche here.
10:51And he's clipped his left foot.
11:01Following Balogun against Dominic Graif.
11:06Balogun slots it into the bottom corner.
11:09Monaco have turned this game on its head.
11:11No mistake from Balogun. Monaco's top scorer.
11:16Who has seven goals now in his last seven games.
11:23Lyon, one. Monaco, two.
11:30Malwissa now.
11:32Good ball from Malwissa.
11:34And Tufati.
11:36Saved by Graif.
11:37And Lyon desperately clear.
11:40Monaco are right on top here.
11:53Malwissa.
11:53Really good run from Malwissa.
11:54The pass as well. Picking out Antu Fati.
12:04That's nicely worked.
12:06Antu Fati.
12:08Malwissa now.
12:10Malwissa crossing Balogun's there.
12:13Lyon living very dangerously.
12:17Oh, and it's over.
12:19Somehow it stayed out.
12:22And somehow Lyon is still in the game.
12:27Talia Fico with a very dangerous clearance.
12:32Intercepted by Jordan Teze.
12:36Fatih for Balogun. Is he in?
12:39No, because Mata was there.
12:42And then the goalkeeper Dominic Graif denies Fatih.
12:45Lyon are taking risks.
12:47They're leaving gaps.
12:53Here's Hendrik.
12:55Taliso tackled.
12:57Hendrik helped.
12:58Not a good ball from Nate.
13:01And now Balogun in the clear.
13:05He's only got Mata.
13:08Between him and the goal.
13:10Balogun decides to shoot early.
13:11It's way with.
13:17Not a good tackle there from Talia Fico.
13:20Red card.
13:21Talia Fico sent off.
13:24For a studs up challenge.
13:26And Lyon are going to finish this one with ten men.
13:31It's turning into a horrible week for Paolo Fonseca's team.
13:43Long towards Niakate.
13:45He got up well.
13:47Niakate goes for goal.
13:49Schultz now competing.
13:50The shot from Nate.
13:52Schultz blocked.
13:57Endrik.
13:59Back to Congo.
14:01Congo's cross goes over everybody.
14:04Well it's Nervi from Monaco's point of view.
14:07Lyon are throwing everything they've got at them here.
14:16Congo into the box.
14:18Can he deliver a good cross?
14:20He goes for the cutback.
14:21Don't think was the right option there.
14:28Lyon outnumbered though at the back.
14:30Koulibaly to Fatih.
14:32This is Mawisa.
14:33Saved again by Greif.
14:38To keep it in the corner.
14:40Some good skills there.
14:42Biereth with the cutback.
14:43Zakaria.
14:45Lyon block it.
14:47Monaco though still coming as the shot is drilled wide.
14:51And we've got a few seconds left in this one as Greif launches it.
14:57Kera.
14:58Gets it clear and the whistle blows.
15:02Monaco march on.
15:03They have come from behind.
15:06To make it six consecutive wins in Liga.
15:12So that's the end of the game.
