Thank you, youth!
AS Monaco logically won against FC Nantes (2-1) this Sunday afternoon on behalf of the third day of Ligue 1. Dominating and much more enterprising than their opponents, the Monegasques found the fault thanks to two flashes from their young shoots.
The first from the 4th minute with a splendid strike from Sofian Diop (20) under the bar.
The second in the 64th thanks to the speed of Willem Geubbels (21), well launched in depth.
Co-top scorer in the championship last season, French international Wissam Ben Yedder found the post but has still not opened his counter.

On the side of FC Nantes, it was Ludovic Blas who had maintained hope by temporarily equalizing with a magnificent acrobatic volley.
Randal Kolo Muani, still starting in attack, had thought to equalize at the start of the first half but his goal was finally canceled for an unclear offside.
The FCN, again handicapped by many injuries, suffered its first defeat.
Thanks to this second success, the undefeated ASM joined Rennes and Lille at the top of the standings.
She will know next Saturday in Rennes, current leader, if she really has the weapons to play at the top of the table.
