Achraf Hakimi Shines with Two Goals as Paris St-Germain Defeat Brest 3-0 Match Report

Achraf Hakimi played a pivotal role in Paris St-Germain’s successful outing against Brest, securing a 3-0 victory. His two goals, combined with a late strike from Désiré Doué, helped the team climb to the top of Ligue 1.

Match Highlights: Achraf Hakimi’s Stellar Performance

The match kicked off with Hakimi making an immediate impact. He scored his first goal of the season after connecting with a beautifully lofted ball from teammate Vitinha. This early goal set the tone for PSG’s control over the game.

Just before the half-time whistle, Hakimi struck again. This time, he found the net from a tight angle inside the penalty area, doubling PSG’s lead.

Brest’s Missed Opportunities

After the break, Brest had a chance to reduce the deficit. They were awarded a penalty for handball following a VAR review. Unfortunately for the home side, Romain Del Castillo missed the chance, sending his shot over the crossbar.

In an exciting twist, Ousmane Dembélé, the Ballon d’Or winner, made his long-anticipated return to league action. Coming off the bench, he almost scored shortly after entering the match but missed from the edge of the area.

Late Drama and PSG’s Victory

In stoppage time, Brest’s Désiré Doué hit the post, creating a last-minute scare for PSG fans. However, Doué redeemed himself by scoring shortly afterward, sealing the match with the final kick.
