Monaco frustrated as Wenger boys draw in Ligue 1

PARIS, Jan 16 (Reuters) - Thierry Henry's Monaco stretched their winless run in Ligue 1 to four games as they drew 1-1 with Patrick Vieira's Nice on Wednesday as the two former Arsenal greats did battle in the dugout.

Former France internationals Henry and Vieira played 313 games together at Arsenal, under the Premier League club's former boss Arsene Wenger, and with Les Bleus, but their former loyalties were put to one side as Monaco chased a first league win since Dec. 4.

The result left Monaco second from bottom with 15 points from 20 games while Nice, who played the second half with 10 men following Ihsan Sacko's red card, stayed sixth on 30 points.
