Thanks to goals from Takumi Minamino and Denis Zakaria, the Red and Whites have now claimed a place on the podium and thus validated their ticket for next term\u2019s Champions League.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Prince Albert II and President Dmitry Rybolovlev were present in the stands to celebrate this victory. President Rybolovlev was also present at AS Monaco&#8217;s training session at La Turbie on the eve of this important clash with Lyom. His visit paid off, as did his visit to the performance centre before the 3-1 win over Saint-Etienne on 3 May. A great reward for the Principality club, who finished this campaign&#8217;s home fixtures in style in front of their supporters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p lang=\"fr\" dir=\"ltr\">L\u2019 <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AS_Monaco?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@AS_Monaco<\/a> se pr\u00e9pare \u00e0 jouer sa derni\u00e8re rencontre de la saison \u00e0 domicile, et pas des moindres, face \u00e0 l\u2019 <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/OL?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@OL<\/a> !
