An opener from Anthony Martial and an own goal from Kassim Abdallah have given AS Monaco a 2-0 half-time lead over hosts Evian TG in Ligue 1 this evening.
Evian's Adrien Thomasson went close early on in the game when he forced a smart stop from Danijel Subasic down at his bottom-right corner.

It took Monaco a while to get going, but they found an opener through Martial, who collected from Layvin Kurzawa to smash home into the top-left corner in the 18th minute.
The visitors found themselves two goals ahead in the 36th minute when Abdallah deflected Dimitar Berbatov's effort into his own goal to make it 2-0 to Leonardo Jardim's men.
Kurzawa should have made it 3-0 just before the interval, but the full-back somehow managed to head wide from close range following Bernardo Silva's corner.
