PSG's Hakimi Delivers Mixed Performance in 4-1 Victory Over Lyon

Paris Saint-Germain signed a very impressive victory over Olympique Lyonnais (4-1) during the 30th matchday of Ligue 1, thus moving closer to a twelfth league title. Let’s take a detailed look at the performance of Moroccan international Achraf Hakimi as seen by the sports press.

Footmercato gives Hakimi a rating of 5.5/10, highlighting a mixed performance. Although he was challenged defensively by Saïd Benrahma’s dribbles, Hakimi shone offensively, notably with a precise assist for Gonçalo Ramos and intelligent switches in the second half.

90min.com gives a similar rating of 5/10, acknowledging that Hakimi was tested by the diversity of Benrahma’s movements, often requiring the help of his teammates to contain the Lyon winger. However, he was praised for his masterful cross that found Ramos, a key moment in the match.

Paristeam.fr and Maxifoot are more positive, with ratings of 6/10 and 6.5/10 respectively. They describe a relatively quiet evening for Hakimi, highlighting his offensive contribution with a decisive cross that allowed Ramos to score with a header.

Parisfans is even more complimentary, offering a rating of 7/10. The site emphasizes the effectiveness of Hakimi’s crosses, especially when his targets are well positioned in the penalty area. His active role in the offensive phases was also an asset for PSG, compensating for the absence of some key teammates.

Le Parisien also gives a rating of 7/10, stating that Hakimi has left behind a period of lesser efficiency. Highly involved both in attack and defense, he was crucial to several dangerous actions, in addition to his assist for Ramos’ goal.

His ability to create chances and actively participate in the game makes the Moroccan a valuable asset for PSG, especially as the end of the season approaches.
