Without shaking, AS Monaco qualified for the semi-finals of the Coupe de France on Tuesday February 8, beating Amiens (2-0). Well launched in the game thanks to an early goal from Aurélien Tchouaméni (5th), the Red and Whites provided the essentials against one of the last two residents of Ligue 2 still in contention.

While in control, Philippe Clement’s players gradually established their domination, before doubling the lead shortly after returning from the locker room. On a decisive pass from the very young Maghnes Akliouche (19), who was celebrating his first start in the competition, the German Kevin Volland sealed the outcome of the meeting (54th).

Without shining but with a certain ease, Monaco therefore joins the next round where it will try to qualify for a second final in a row.

The quarter-finals of the Coupe de France continue on Wednesday with the small thumbs duel between Begerac and Versailles, at 6.30 p.m., then the Ligue 1 shock between Nice and Marseille (at 9.15 p.m.). Thursday, Nantes and Bastia will meet for the last match of these quarter-finals.
