AS Monaco open Ligue 1 with win at Le Havre
By Zak Jackson, MonacoViews Editorial
A first-half Eric Dier goal was enough to give AS Monaco a 1-0 victory away at Le Havre on the opening day of the Ligue 1 season.
AS Monaco began their 2026-27 Ligue 1 campaign with a disciplined away win at the Stade Océane on Sunday, Eric Dier breaking the deadlock early to set the tone for a controlled performance.
The defender's goal proved sufficient as Monaco held firm throughout, taking maximum points from a tricky opening fixture on the road. It is the kind of result that tends to matter come the spring, when early away wins can define a title challenge.
