Overview of the match Ajaccio - Monaco:
In the recent Ligue 1 match between Ajaccio and Monaco at the Stade François Coty, Monaco managed to win 2-0 thanks to goals from W. Ben Yedder and K. Diatta. At the beginning of the match Ajaccio got two yellow cards in a row: I. Belailly and I. Diallo were cautioned during the first 14 minutes. However, Ajaccio decided to replace Diallo with M.

Both teams continued to play physically, with Monaco's G. Maripane receiving a yellow card in the 49th minute.
