Monaco scored an injury-time equaliser to claim a 2-2 draw against Nice in Tuesday night's Ligue 1 encounter at the Stade Louis II.
Adama Diakhaby put the reigning French champions ahead in the 33rd minute of the match after getting on the end of Thomas Lemar's cross from the right flank and rifling home.
Mario Balotelli, however, equalised shortly after the restart when he ghosted in front of Kamil Glik to turn in Allan Saint-Maximin's cross from point-blank range.
The Italian striker then claimed his second of the game on 68 minutes, latching on to a Jean Michael Seri pass before seeing his shot beat Danijel Subasic with the aid of a deflection off Andrea Raggi.
Nice looked like they were on the way to three points, but in injury time, Stevan Jovetic's shot was saved by Walter Benitez before Radamel Falcao turned in the rebound for his 16th league goal of the campaign.
The result keeps third-placed Monaco winless in 2018 and leaves them 10 points behind league leaders Paris Saint-Germain, while Nice remain sixth in the standings.
