Ibrahima Toure’s rich vein of form for former French giants Monaco continued on Wednesday as his double inspired the 2004 Champions League finalists to a 4-2 home win over Ligue 1 opponents Valenciennes and a place in the Last 16 of the League Cup. Ibrahima - who scored a hat-trick for Monaco in last Friday’s 4-0 demolition of another former French champion fallen on tough times Lens - scored their first and fourth goals to round off a highly satisfactory evening for the Ligue 2 leaders. Wednesday’s first game had seen Claude Puel-coached Nice beat 10-man Brest 4-2 away with Argentinian striker Dario Cvitanich scoring a brace which were his first goals for the club and inflicted Brest’s first home defeat of the campaign. “These type of games are never easy,” said Puel. “We made a good start and then tried too hard to run the show.”
