Hot Streak for Balogun as American Forward Scores in 8th Straight Game for Monaco

Balogun’s penalty capped Monaco’s comeback as the club stayed in the Champions League chase and Auxerre remained in the relegation playoff spot.

  • On Sunday, American forward Folarin Balogun scored for the eighth straight league game as Monaco rallied to draw 2-2 with Auxerre in Ligue 1.
  • Monaco trailed 2-0 after Midfielder Kévin Danois scored in the 11th minute and striker Lassine Sinayoko added a goal in the 33rd when his shot squirmed under goalkeeper Lukas Hradecky.
  • Former Barcelona midfielder Ansu Fati narrowed the deficit with a low drive three minutes before Balogun equalized with a 59th-minute penalty after being knocked over by goalkeeper Donovan.
  • The result keeps Monaco in seventh place with four games remaining, two points behind fourth-place Marseille, which lost 2-0 at Lorient on Saturday.
  • Auxerre remains in 16th place, occupying the relegation-promotion playoff spot against Ligue 2's third-place finisher, while league leader Paris Saint-Germain hosts Lyon later Sunday.
