Victory would have propelled Leonardo Jardim’s side to within five points of leaders Paris Saint-Germain, but – as has often been the way this season – their watertight defence was let down by the attack.

Monaco remain in fourth spot, trailing Marseille by two points, Lyon by six points and PSG by seven points.
