Folarin Balogun’s hot run of goalscoring form continued Sunday with the American striker capping off a comeback Ligue 1 draw for AS Monaco.
Balogun scored his 18th goal of the season across all competitions in Monaco’s 2-2 home draw with Auxerre. It marked Balogun’s eighth-consecutive Ligue 1 match with a goal, moving him one match back from tying the league record.
Kevin Danois and Lassine Sinayoko both scored in the first half to give the visitors a 2-0 halftime lead. However, AS Monaco would rally in the second half to earn a share of the spoils.
Ansu Fati trimmed the deficit in the 56th minute before Balogun stepped up from the penalty spot and tied the match three minutes later. Balogun now has 10 goals in his last nine appearances in all competitions.
Despite falling out of the top-six, AS Monaco will take something from the fight back ahead of its final four matches of the season.
Up next for Balogun and his AS Monaco teammates is a trip to Toulouse on April 25 before final matches against Metz, Lille, and Strasbourg.
