Monaco defeated basement side Dijon 3-0 on Sunday to stay in contention in a four-team title race in Ligue 1, moving back to within four points of leaders Lille. Stevan Jovetic swept in the rebound after Wissam Ben Yedder’s penalty was saved by Dijon goalkeeper Saturnin Allagbe early in the second half. Ben Yedder atoned for his missed spot-kick on 62 minutes, clipping in Monaco’s second after Aleksandr Golovin intercepted a loose pass and slipped the ball through for the France striker.
Marseille labored to a 2-0 home win against last-place Dijon on Sunday but strengthened its bid for a Europa League place after its rivals dropped points over the weekend. The scrappy victory moved sixth-place Marseille one point behind Lens in fifth place and a Europa League spot next season. Rennes and Montpellier dropped three points behind Marseille by drawing their matches on Sunday, the day after Lens was held by Lyon.
