Radamel Falcao has continued his scoring streak with AS Monaco.

The former Manchester United and Chelsea striker scored twice as Monaco halved Nice's Ligue 1 lead with a 6-0 demolition of strugglers Nancy on Saturday.

The Colombian striker, who also scored twice in a 3-0 win against CSKA Moscow in the Champions League in midweek, again demonstrated he was back to his world-class best as second-placed Monaco moved within three points of Nice.

Nice, who travel to Caen on Sunday, have 29 points from 11 games.
