The first half was a whirlwind of action. Monaco struck early, with goals from Volland and Ben Yedder putting them two goals up. Saint-Étienne fought back bravely, with Khazri scoring a penalty shortly after the restart.
The second half was a tense affair. Monaco were relentless in their pursuit of more goals. Another Monaco goal by Boadu solidified their victory. The match ended 4-1, a display of attacking football mastery by Monaco in front of a packed Saint-Étienne crowd.
Several exciting moments punctuated the game. It was a shame that Saint-Étienne conceded an own goal in the final stages.

Monaco seemed to have a more composed approach, constantly looking to exploit Saint-Étienne's vulnerabilities. Saint-Étienne played with passion, but their tactical adjustments were not enough to turn the tide. Monaco's well-drilled offense and precise passing proved a tough nut for Saint-Étienne's defense to crack.
