The club’s greatest players were invited to take part in the celebrations along with Prince Albert II and AS Monaco President Dmitry Rybolovlev.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

It was party time for AS Monaco and its fans. The football club celebrated its centenary with unprecedented gusto at the weekend! Monegasques and supporters from all over France and abroad paid tribute to 100 years of sporting success and the dedication of the club’s loyal supporters. <\/p>\n\n

The focal point of the celebrations was the Ligue 1 match against Montpellier, which AS Monaco won<\/a> in front of an ecstatic Louis-II crowd, thrilled not only by a legendary match but also by the different happenings organised in honour of the centenary.<\/p>\n\n

The mood was set as soon as the fans entered the stadium, with Jean-Luc Ettori and Emmanuel Petit on the forecourt to sign autographs. Inside the stadium, commemorative flags awaited each fan, who were all dressed in red and white.<\/p>\n\n

At club President Dmitry Rybolovlev’s side, Prince Albert II watched the festivities with enthusiasm. These included a kick-off by the oldest former player present and the Academy’s youngest player, a parade featuring great names who have been part of AS Monaco’s history, and a performance by the Palladiennes, a traditional Monegasque dance group.<\/p>\n
