Monaco Beats Reims in Ligue 1 Round 9 with Ben Yedder's Double

On Monday night, Monaco made it two wins from two as they beat Reims in the Ligue 1 round 9 clash at Stade Louis-II.

The hosts were the first to open the scoring through Benjamin Mendy on the 24th minute but the visitors soon equalised when Sebastien Haller scored his 50th goal for the club.

However, the home side went back in front three minutes later when Moussa Dembélé put them ahead after good work by Hakim Ziyech and Benjamin Mendy.

Reims were still in the game though as they reduced the deficit when Haller scored his second of the evening but they could not find a way past the visiting goalkeeper.

Monaco then added their third goal of the match through Ben Yedder who headed in from close range before Mendy completed his hat-trick on the 86th minute.

It was a comfortable victory for Monaco as they move up to fourth in the table while Reims slip down to eighth.
