Monaco 2-2 Nice

Diop, Aiglon of the derby

Sofiane Diop was voted your Aiglon of the derby against Monaco (2-2) with 38 % of the votes.

On the pitch at Louis II, which he knows well, Le Gym's number 10 put in a stellar performance. Both in terms of his technical quality and his commitment, including in all defensive duties when the team was down to ten men after half an hour of play.

His solid performance was accompanied by a fine brace: a well-placed curling shot (29') and a penalty that he coolly converted (42'). These were his second and third goals of the season, following the one he scored against Paris FC a week ago and his 10th and 11th goals in 87 matches wearing the red and black jersey.

A reliable presence in Nice's defence, Antoine Mendy also received a significant number of votes (27%), as did Yéhvann Diouf (13%).
