Hakimi Enters Africa's Top Three Most Decorated Players
Achraf Hakimi is now the third most decorated African footballer after helping Paris Saint-Germain win the UEFA Super Cup on Wednesday night. PSG recovered from 0-2 down to draw 2-2 with Tottenham in Udine, before winning 4-3 on penalties. Hakimi contributed to the attack with one chance created, five crosses—one completed—and two successful long passes from six attempts. He completed 69 of 83 passes, an accuracy rate of 83%. Defensively, the Moroccan international won two of three tackles and was not beaten in a one-on-one throughout the match. While less advanced in his attacking runs than in previous games, he maintained a key role on the right flank, particularly in the closing stages as PSG pushed for an equaliser. The victory takes Hakimi's career total to 17 trophies, placing him behind only Samuel Eto'o and Yaya Touré, who each have 18. At 26, Hakimi is close to surpassing both to become Africa's most decorated player. He reacted to the win by posting photographs from the celebrations on social media. His performances for club and country this year have kept him in contention for the 2025 Ballon d'Or, to be awarded in September. Hakimi's latest title bolsters his position among Africa's most successful footballers, with the opportunity to equal or break the record soon.

Hakimi's PSG Wins UEFA Super Cup
Rabat — Achraf Hakimi's Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) hopes to claim the UEFA Super Cup title came true tonight in Udine, Italy. Following a well-fought game, the Parisian club settled the game in penalty kicks after a 2-2 draw, ultimately winning 4-3 to claim the title. Micky van de Ven opened the scoring for Tottenham, putting Spurs ahead in the 39th minute after pouncing on a rebound in a crowded PSG box. Cristian Romero doubled the Premier League club's lead early in the second half with a powerful header, sealing a disciplined performance from the Europa League winners. Hakimi, starting at right-back, endured a subdued night. Tottenham's high prowess, pressing, and compact shape kept the Moroccan international pinned in defence, limiting his trademark overlapping runs. His contributions came largely in tracking runners and breaking up attacks, with little opportunity to influence play in the opponent's 18 square meters. Although PSG's manager Luis Enrique made changes with the hope of rewinding and finding their way to Tottenham's net, the Spurs kept the 0-2 draw unchanged for large spells of the game. It was not until minute 85 that Enrique's substitutes made a difference in the game. The Korean Lee Kang-in reached Vicario's net with an unstoppable strike, bringing life to the eyes of his teammates. Ten minutes later, and late in added time, PSG's Goncalo Ramos turned Osman Dembele's assist into an equalizer, scoring his club's second goal and proving that a game is never over until the final whistle. PSG's equalizer sent both clubs to the penalty kicks, where chance is as important as technical competence. With so many kicks wasted from both sides, the Parisian club was able to make the hopes come true with a penalty score of 4-3. Tottenham Hotspur's dream to claim its first-ever faded away tonight, left with a search for answers ahead of the new season. Tags: HakimiPSG vs TottenhamUEFA Super Cup
