PARIS (AP) — Monaco has extended its unbeaten run to seven matches with a 2-0 win at Clermont and moved two points behind third-place Lens. Lens managed only a 1-1 draw at Brest. Defender Jonathan Gradit equalized from close range in the 83rd minute for Lens after Brest goalkeeper Marco Bizot miskicked the ball following a corner. Third place secures a place in the qualifying rounds of the Champions League next season. Second-place Marseille needs to win at home to Nice later Sunday to stay five points behind PSG.
