Nice reach cup final

Nice made it to the League Cup final for the first time with a 1-0 win over Monaco.

Nice made it to the League Cup final for the first time in their history with a late 1-0 win over Monaco.

Substitute Honorato Ederson's last-minute proved to be the difference between the two sides.

The game looked to ending in a stalemate until Ederson popped up to head home Sebastien Roudet's cross.

Nice now await the winners of the other semi-final between Nancy or Le Mans in the final.

The defeat is a blow to Monaco boss Francesco Guidolin as victory in the League Cup guarantees a Uefa Cup place and the Principality side have struggled in Ligue 1 this term.
