Monaco have secured their place in the UEFA Champions League play-off with a convincing 2-0 victory over Lille in the Ligue 1 playoffs.
The match was a closely contested affair, but Monaco emerged victorious thanks to two well-taken goals from Kylian Mbappe and Benjamin Mendy. The first goal came in the 45th minute when Mbappe volleyed home after good work from the midfielders. The second goal came in the 68th minute when Mendy headed home from a corner kick.
This result has given Monaco a chance to compete in the Champions League next season, while also ensuring that they will not be relegated from Ligue 1 this season. It is a great achievement for the team, which has been struggling in recent years.
Monaco's coach, Leonardo Jardim, praised his players for their performance, saying "We played well today and we deserve this win. We have a lot of work to do now to make sure we stay in Europe."
Lille, on the other hand, will be disappointed with their defeat, as they had been hoping to secure a spot in the Europa League next season. They will need to bounce back in the coming weeks and hope to avoid relegation.
Overall, it was a strong showing from Monaco, who have shown that they can compete at the highest level of European football. Their fans will be hoping that they can continue to perform well and bring success to the club.
