Monaco's march towards Champions League qualification in Ligue 1 was slowed on Friday as they slumped to a 2-1 defeat at home to struggling Bordeaux at the Stade Louis II. 
Goals in each half from Thomas Toure and Adam Ounas were enough for the away side before a Frederic Guilbert own goal gave Monaco a late consolation in the principality. 
Monaco had looked certainties to finish second and secure automatic qualification for next season's Champions League thanks to an eight-game unbeaten run that included a 2-0 win away to champions Paris Saint-Germain in their last outing. 
However, this first home league defeat since September means third-placed Nice can close to within two points if they can win at PSG on Saturday, while fourth-placed Lyon will also hope to put the pressure on when they visit Lorient on Sunday.
