PARIS (Reuters) - Second-placed AS Monaco slumped to a 2-1 defeat by visiting Girondins de Bordeaux in Ligue 1 on Friday as they missed the chance to open a provisional eight-point gap over their rivals for a Champions League spot.

Monaco, who failed to convert a penalty in added time before being gifted an own goal, have 55 points ahead of third-placed Nice, who visit champions Paris St Germain on Saturday.
