Paris Saint-Germain were at Lumen Field on Monday to take on the Seattle Sounders, winning 0-2 (video highlights Seattle Sounders/PSG) as part of Matchday 3 of the Club World Cup. After the match, FIFA elected the best player.
A fine victory for Achraf Hakimi (26-year-old right-back), even if the choice was far from simple. This PSG is above all a team, and so much the better. So it’s often difficult to single out one performance from the rest. In this match, almost anyone could have been a candidate. Paris was serious and dominant, but nobody was flamboyant.
The full-back has a goal to his name, which obviously plays into the voting. It’s deserved, it’s an essential point in order to score, and other players failed in the final gesture. Above all, we’re hoping to see Hakimi continue in the same vein.
