In a dramatic turn of events, Ligue 1 leaders Monaco were held to a 2-2 draw during their visit to Lorient, with Romain Faivre's late goal in the 97th minute salvaging a point for the home side. This result was a frustrating outcome for Monaco, who had victory within their grasp and were looking to maintain their dominance in Ligue 1.

Despite the draw, Adi Hutter's team retains their position at the top of the competition but concedes a significant part of their lead. The Monaco side had initially found themselves trailing after a goal by Tosin in the 10th minute but managed to stage a comeback, with goals from Russian midfielder Aleksander Golovin in the 17th minute and an assist to Folarin Balogun in the 69th minute. However, with the match nearly concluded, Faivre's equalizer in the 97th minute denied Monaco the victory they sought.
