00:00.
00:03Away we go, in a clash of the top five,
00:07and two sides that expect to be within it and amongst the conversation for the duration.
00:12The last Ligue 1 winners outside the city of Paris,
00:16and it's an interesting conversation as it stands across French football is this the year,
00:23and a new Brazilian stewardship that Monaco can change that,
00:27spearheaded by their own personal Paris,
00:29as we welcome you to the Stade Louis-Doux on the Côte d'Azur in southern France,
00:35as Monaco take on Lille, Callum Williams, your commentator.
00:41Monaco with a record of four victories, one loss and two draws.
00:45Of course, they suffered their last defeat, their first defeat against Lorient in Ligue 1,
00:52just last weekend, they have some defending to do here.
00:57Bar Yes, here Newquart.
01:11Here's Sky are.
01:14Try to force a way through, conveying the nor the way.
01:17Here's Geraldsson.
01:26Isla Amin Kamala
01:32Tried to flick it through
01:33Does just that
01:34It's the opening goal
01:38Ethan Mbappe with his second goal in Ligue 1 this season
01:42And out of absolutely nothing
01:44Lille have cut Monaco to ribbons
01:50All the noise you can hear
01:51Comes from a celebrated corner
01:55The Lille fans jumping for joy
01:59It's a lovely ball played in behind
02:02The run fed superbly
02:08And Sogribo Jun
02:10Turns goal scorer to provider
02:13And Ethan Mbappe
02:15With his second goal in Ligue 1 this season
02:18Gives Lille the unlikely away lead in the principality
02:22It's Monaco 0
02:24Lille 1
02:28It's a long ball forward now for Roman Perrault
02:33Let's go
02:36let's go Let's
02:38go Lille
02:39with the ball again Let's
02:44go Into the
02:46grasp of Lukasz Radecki
02:49It would have been quite the way to score your first Ligue 1 goal of the season for the Belgian
02:53international.
02:55And he and Paris Bruno were on the same page. Not on that occasion.
03:02Errolsen, Betaleb.
03:05And it's Mbappe again.
03:09It's time Nazinho is there to make the necessary challenge.
03:13And so, against the odds...
03:18So then, underway again.
03:21In what is a 45-minute in which Monaco need to find something.
03:29Can we deliver when Monaco need a moment?
03:34It's Golovin! Good save from the goalkeeper.
03:38Mirka Orza tested for the first time here this afternoon.
03:44Very good free kick, struck by the Russian Golovin.
03:47And plenty of whip, zip and dip.
03:51Tezi.
03:53It's a lovely lofted ball forward.
03:55Golovin's onside.
03:57It pulls to Matisse Ablin.
03:59Behind for a corner.
04:02Another sign of life in front of goal for Monaco.
04:05Lovely weighted pass from Jurgen Tezi.
04:09Golovin's showing guile and vision by seeing it back into the path of Ablin.
04:18Asignol, cleverly down the line.
04:20Death Torbay across the face.
04:22It's well blocked, but only into the path of Diode.
04:25No recipients.
04:27In red and white for Monaco this time.
04:33It's the right idea to play it back across and into the danger zone.
04:39Adeline now with the angle against him.
04:41Van Dersen across the face and Paris Bronner has fired over.
04:48Well, if he wanted anybody to find themselves in front of goal, given the form that he's in, it would
04:53have been Paris Bronner.
04:55Cross just behind him a little bit perhaps, forced him to adjust at the last moment.
05:01Just scoop the ball up and over.
05:04This pass is a really good opening for Monaco again.
05:17Paris Bronner picking up the scraps and winning a free kick.
05:20Oh, it's a red card.
05:22It's a straight red card.
05:29Tanguy Niyonzu has received his marching orders with 25 minutes to play.
05:37And how that may change things here in the Principality.
05:48Oh, there were protests almost immediately.
05:51Roman Perru received a yellow card for his protest towards the referee.
05:56But Tanguy Niyonzu has received a straight red card.
06:05The captain allowed to talk to the official, of course.
06:13The confirmation of that yellow card for Roman Perru.
06:17The Stade-Pressoir man.
06:18A little too vocal for the referee's liking.
06:21This was the initial moment.
06:23It's a very high foot.
06:25Too high for the referee's liking.
06:27Certainly caught Paris Bronner.
06:30Scraped down the right leg of the Monaco centre-forward.
06:35Caught in full throttle.
06:39Matisse de Chorbet craving half a yard.
06:48Diop.
06:51And Kamara lets fly.
06:57Now it's the closest he's come today.
07:02Struck across the ball very well indeed.
07:04It was always spinning up and away from the goalkeeper.
07:08And indeed away from the goal.
07:21And Zinio.
07:34It's a lovely inviting ball in!
07:36And it goes all the way in!
07:39Well, Paris Bronner certainly played his part.
07:44But the goal will very well be given to Idan Diop.
07:49And his impressive spell in the first team for Monaco continues on.
07:54And with 18 minutes to play, Monaco a level of 1-1.
08:02It's a lovely ball in from Diop.
08:05And Paris Bronner threw a leg towards it.
08:13The question is, did he get a touch?
08:16He, of course, in typical centre-forward fashion will say he did.
08:24It's a chock-bear winning the ball back.
08:26And Monaco now have momentum.
08:31Nacinho with the ball in.
08:33Away this time towards the cusp.
08:35Ableen needs half a yard.
08:37Ableen lets fly!
08:41Monaco had another.
08:43Golovin's ball in.
08:45Headed up and over.
08:49And Sadi Boussane underneath it.
08:53Just unable to test the goalkeeper on that occasion.
08:57Rose, high.
08:58Here's Tezze, to Tiochbe, into Nazinho, lovely angled ball in,
09:07Paris Pogona across the face, there's an appeal for a hand,
09:10referee says no.
09:15Here's Diop, camera, Golovin again, and over again.
09:23Monaco continuing to press and push.
09:27Feel hard done by, feel as though they should have had a penalty in this situation.
09:32Bruno playing the ball across, skipped up awkwardly off the surface
09:37and into the outstretched hand.
09:41Diop, Matiste Tezze.
09:45Nazinho across the face, cleared away, into Van Dersen, very well charged down.
09:51And now it's Jordan Tezze and wide.
09:56Now the chances keep coming for Monaco.
10:01Can they, could they, in the dying embers.
10:09Last goal he scored here.
10:10Yeah...
10:11Wandersen.
10:16...
10:17Scooped into the path of Tezze.
10:23Wandersen.
10:24Wandersen.
10:25Wandersen across the face!
10:26Up and over.
10:30and it was patiently worked by Monaco
10:34and Casino threw himself at the ball
10:36and in the end the ball sails high and wide
10:41and so it finishes a point apiece in the Principality
10:54well that's the final whistle here Monaco and Lille share the points of the entertaining I would say 1-1
10:59draw in the Principality
