"This was not the match of my life" – said the PSG defender, who also provided two assists alongside his hat-trick.
Achraf Hakimi had a remarkable performance against Le Havre, contributing to five goals in a single match, a rare feat for a defender. He assisted Mika Godts and scored three goals himself, including one from a free kick. Hakimi's achievement marks the first time since the 2015-2016 season that a defender has been involved in five goals in a match across Europe's top leagues. PSG's coach Luis Enrique substituted Hakimi shortly after his third goal to rest him for upcoming matches, including a Champions League game against Villarreal. Hakimi expressed satisfaction with his performance, noting it was his first hat-trick but not his most emotional match.
