The match between Monaco and Lyon was a closely contested affair, with both teams sharing the spoils in a 2-2 draw. The game saw two standout performances from two of Europe's top strikers, with Ben Yedder and Caicedo each contributing to their respective team's success.
Ben Yedder, who is currently on loan from Paris Saint-Germain, opened the scoring for his side in the 19th minute. He showed great pace and strength to beat his marker and finish clinically at the near post. However, Lyon were not to be outdone as they responded quickly with a goal of their own, thanks to the deft touch of Caicedo.
The Colombian forward, who joined the club on loan from West Ham United earlier this season, had been causing problems for the Monaco defence all night long. His clever run into the box allowed him to tap home a low cross from the left, leaving goalkeeper Steve Mandanda no chance.
Despite being behind, Monaco did not give up and fought back valiantly. They equalized through a well-worked move involving several players, including the impressive Benjamin Mendy. Mendy made a superb tackle on a Lyon player before passing the ball to Benjamin Bourigeaud, who finished calmly to level the scores.
The game remained goalless until the final minutes when Monaco midfielder Kevin Gameiro scored a stunning volley to put them ahead. Lyon tried to respond but could not find a way past the determined Monaco defence.
Overall, it was a thrilling encounter that showcased the talent of two of Europe's best young forwards. It will be interesting to see how the duo fare against some of the world's biggest clubs next season.
