Monaco Stuns Lens 3-2 to Hand PSG the Chance to Go Top in France

Monaco scored three second-half goals to overturn a two-goal deficit against Lens, allowing Paris Saint-Germain a chance to reclaim Ligue 1's top spot, league sources said.

  • On Saturday, Monaco came from behind to beat Lens 3-2 at the Stade Bollaert-Delelis, completing a second-half comeback.
  • Lens took an early lead when Odsonne Edouard scored after three minutes, with Lens aiming for a club record 11th home league win, before Monaco came back to win 3-2.
  • Monaco turned the game in the second half as Folarin Balogun pulled one back, Denis Zakaria equalised, and Ansu Fati struck soon after to complete the 3-2 comeback.
  • With Lens dropping points, PSG, a point behind, can reclaim top spot if they avoid defeat at home to Metz later on Saturday.
  • Tuesday's Champions League first leg saw Monaco lead PSG 2-0 but lose 3-2, keeping Monaco in the mix for European qualification after recent league results.
