The Polish goalkeeper Marcin Bulka, who stopped two penalties from Florian Balogun, and the Ivorian Jeremie Boga, who scored in the 91st minute, gave Nice a victory in Monaco (0-1), displacing their rival from the top spot and temporarily taking the lead.

Unbeaten and bolstered by their previous victory in the Parc des Princes against Paris Saint-Germain, Nice stormed the Stade Louis II and won the Derby de la Côte d'Azur thanks to the goal from the African player, who, one hour into the match, came off the bench to replace Sofiane Diop.
