Hakimi bags hat-trick as PSG thrash Le Havre 5-1

Achraf Hakimi showcased his exceptional skills by scoring a hat-trick as Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) dominated their opponents, Le Havre, with a convincing 5-1 victory in Ligue 1. The champions extended their lead at the top of the table, now boasting a four-point advantage over their nearest rivals, Rennes, who lost their match 5-2 to Nice.

Earlier in the game, Le Havre took the lead early on when Josh Maja scored a surprising opening goal. However, Hakimi quickly equalized with a low drive just inside the near post, followed by a free-kick that curled low past the goalkeeper Arnaud Bodard. The European champions continued to press hard, and Hakimi completed his hat-trick with a fierce long-range finish after a lightning break, leaving the defense trailing.

Hakimi's hat-trick sealed the win for PSG, who now sit at the top of the table with 20 points after nine games.
