Monaco promoted to Ligue 1 after late winner

Toure (pictured) scored in the fifth minute of stoppage time to help Monaco open up an unassailable lead in Ligue 2 with two games remaining.

Fourth-placed Angers are 10 points adrift while fifth-placed Caen, who could have been a threat as they have a game in hand, cannot make up the ground as they are 11 points adrift.

Monaco are also at odds with the French League (LFP) and Federation (FFF) after being ordered to move their headquarters to France in order to end tax exemption for the club's players.

A meeting with the FFF, the LFP, the club's union and Monaco management has been planned for May 22.
