The reception of the very playful Metz team the day after the international break was not a gift for Niko Kovc's men, they nevertheless did the job by winning widely (4-0) this Saturday afternoon and put a little more pressure on PSG, Lille and Lyon.

Thanks to this success, Monaco, which temporarily climbs on the podium in Ligue 1, takes two points ahead of OL who travel to Lens and comes back to a small point from Parisians and Lille who face each other on Saturday at 5 p.m.

Monaco did the job, it was the turn of Paris, Lille and Lyon to play

Everything was played in the second half between Monegasques and Messins, when the referee granted an extremely generous penalty - let's be clear, there was no fault from Marc-Aurèle Caillard on Jovetic - after the locker room (50th).

Transformed by Cesc Fabregas, this welcome gift released the gang to Kovacs, who doubled the lead in the wake thanks to Volland (50th) before Ben Yedder, substitute at the kickoff, entered and slammed a double (77th , 89th sp).

The Rocher players have therefore perfectly fulfilled their mission of the day, the hand is now in Paris, Lille and Lyon.

The two matches PSG-Lille (5 p.m.) and Lens-Lyon (9 p.m.) will be followed live on
