00:00Four titles, it is Saint-Etienne and Paris Saint-Germain, the current champions of Ligue 1.

00:06A difficult game for them, Jason Gatier-Lachsonneau going into the pitch.

00:16Underway at the Stade, Geoffroy Guichard.

00:20It feels like a must win for both sides.

00:23As Saint-Etienne look to avoid relegation and Monaco try and return to the Liga McDonald's podium.

00:35Already early, Strasbourg beating a much-changed Paris Saint-Germain side 2-1.

00:41Mika Birettu, forward Balogun finds Takumi Miramino.

00:46And there's certainly a lot of menace in this early attack!

00:49And it's a simple tap-in for Magnus Aglius.

00:56The Karate Kid putting Le Monegasque in, took it for answers.

01:02But this was quick, quick and slick from Monaco.

01:08Takumi Miramino laying it to Kyle Enrique.

01:12And it was a very calm pick-out that saw Aglius in a position where he could not miss.

01:23So 72nd goal conceded by Sante, but they could be in here for an equaliser!

01:35And it's just crept past the post!

01:38Well, agonizingly close to an equaliser.

01:41Lovely ball down the line for Erwin Cardona!

01:46And if you clock up the misses, he's had of late.

01:51Sante could have started this game out of the bottom two.

01:56And it was mentioned in the summer to get the players to play that football better.

02:03The following, Balogun gets an angled shot by the Sonat with an easy save.

02:09Nice play, just wouldn't run for Balogun, but Sante have to be a bit careful.

02:18Plenty of red and white shirts hovering around, and now there's space for Aglius.

02:23And in the end, Teze decided...

02:25Four goals, both doubles, on this grind.

02:30But Aglius is now in for his own double, if not for Asana.

02:35Givin away cheaply, and he was suddenly in.

02:42Tried to go under La Sona.

02:47Sante's captain, with a big save.

02:49...of often, for others.

02:52Teze.

02:54Oh, early ball to...

02:56...for a Balogun!

02:58Fires it across, before the flag goes up.

03:01We'll find out soon enough, as the halftime whistle sounds.

03:13Monaco suffering at the end of the first half, but having to win.

03:171-0 after 45 minutes of play.

03:20We thought it was going to be an interesting game.

03:21Aglius with a minute to go.

03:23Back underway.

03:32Monaco with a precious lead.

03:35Saint-Etienne desperate to cut it out.

03:41The match.

03:41I'll take it short.

03:42Aglius back to the taker.

03:45Zakaria, and it's headed down and over.

03:48What a chance for Brielle Mbolo.

03:54Well-worked short corner.

03:57Jordan Teze, with a wicked delivery.

04:01Brielle Mbolo.

04:02And Agua, making sure it didn't suddenly become a ball attack for the Irish.

04:06But suddenly, David Tajmiliano goal.

04:09He's got two supporting, and he's missed the target.

04:12He had Wazi and Cardona begging for it.

04:18Well, it was suddenly the Georgian speedster charging in on goal.

04:27But he never looked like looking elsewhere.

04:32And despite 15 goal involvements, missing his goals, missing his threat.

04:39Gerekwa, lovely ball right in the corner.

04:43Damatashvili, touch, fired in!

04:46Oh, it's quite magnificent!

04:48He missed a massive chance.

05:04When they had a three on two.

05:05Damatashvili with his ninth of the season.

05:12And it is quite spectacular.

05:15Gerekwa, one touch to set it up.

05:19Another to fire it up and over Philipp Kohn.

05:25Sonté.

05:27A back row.

05:28The energy of the stage of Gisha.

05:32They've also got to make sure it's not extinguished.

05:36Minamino blocked.

05:37But it falls for Al Masrati!

05:40Oh, it's ended up!

05:41Back in the net!

05:44And just when Sonté began to dream,

05:50it's a Monaco substitute who has doused the flames over Chaudron.

05:56Well, it was a wonderful ball forward.

06:06Balogun kept it in, kept it alive.

06:09Minamino blocked by Nade.

06:12But then look at that from Denis Zakaria.

06:14He got a touch.

06:19They just laid it into the path.

06:22And the deflection.

06:25Completely wrong-footing Lassona.

06:29And Sonté.

06:31A huge goal.

06:34And a massive response from the Monégasque.

06:36And a first Liga McDonald's goal for Al.

06:41And a 2-1 lead.

06:46Just over 12 minutes remaining.

06:48Plus stoppage time at Balogun.

06:50The flag stays down.

06:52And that is game set match, surely.

06:57He's had such a tough time of it.

07:02But the American international.

07:07Just his seventh start of the season.

07:09Hugely interrupted by injury.

07:13On course for a fourth goal of the season.

07:16Just the first of 2025.

07:19But the question will be, was he offside?

07:31But Arizona certainly hopes so.

07:37Balogun with his.

07:39But it shows how tight it is in the table.

07:42And he can't afford not to win.

07:45And Zakaria's effort hits the top of the net.

07:51For Saint-Etienne.

07:52And they want to keep fighting.

07:56Because a goal could reignite the contest.

07:59But Wajji couldn't keep his header down.

08:03It is a vital victory.

08:06In Monaco's hunt for the Champions League.

08:09Solonico gets the three points they needed.
