Balde among the goals as Monaco outclass Amiens

Keita Balde scored a goal as Monaco cruised to a 3-0 win over Amiens in Saturday's Ligue 1 game.

The 24-year-old joined Wissam Ben Yedder and Guillermo Maripan on the scoresheet as the Red and Whites scored three goals within six minutes.

After a goalless first-half, Ben Yedder broke the deadlock at the Stade Louis II in the 62nd minute, then Maripan hit the target four minutes later before Balde secured the win with his 69th-minute effort.

The Senegalese winger has now scored three goals in 12 Ligue 1 games this campaign.
