Monaco hold Lille as Rennes go top of Ligue 1
Lille have to settle for second place on goal difference ahead of Monaco after the 1-1 draw, with both sides moving to 15 points.
In a crucial Ligue 1 match, Monaco fought back to secure a 1-1 draw against Lille at the Stade Louis II Stadium on Sunday. The victory opens the door for Rennes to claim the top spot in the table following a 3-0 win over struggling Strasbourg. With PSG and Lyon's match postponed due to protests in France, a win for Monaco could have placed them three points clear at the top.
However, Lille secured second place on goal difference, one point ahead of Monaco and Lyon. Earlier, Ethan Mbappe scored for Lille, but Monaco's Edan Diop equalized with a well-taken goal in the 74th minute. Rennes capitalized on the draw, defeating Strasbourg 3-0 to climb to 16 points, while Lille remains 15 points behind.
