Title: Personal Record Breaker: Ben Yedder Scores Twice in Ligue 1, Monaco Wins 3-1, Reaching New Highpoints in the Season

In a thrilling match at Stade Louis II, Monaco defeated Rennes 3-1 to secure their place in the top four and set new personal records for their star forward, Benjamin "Ben" Yedder.

Yedder scored twice in the game, making it his second consecutive hat-trick in Ligue 1 this season. The first came early on in the match, as he converted a penalty kick that was awarded after he was fouled by Rennes defender Anthony Faivre. The second goal came in the 72nd minute, when he found the back of the net with a well-placed header from a corner kick.

The win puts Monaco in third place in the table, just two points behind current leaders Paris Saint-Germain. However, they have already secured a spot in next year's UEFA Champions League group stage, thanks to their strong form throughout the season.

For Yedder, the double is a significant achievement given his recent struggles with injury and form. He has been one of the standout performers for Monaco this season, scoring 16 goals in all competitions. His impressive form has helped to boost the team's morale and confidence, which has translated into a more cohesive and united squad.

Despite the win, there were some concerns about Monaco's defensive performance in the second half. They conceded a late goal to Rennes through substitute midfielder Adama Traore, who played a crucial role in the defeat. However, the team managed to hold on to the lead and secure victory.

Overall, it was a fantastic display of football from both sides, with both teams playing at their best. Monaco will now look to continue their winning streak and maintain their position in the top four.
