Kylian Mbappe was all praise for his Paris Saint-Germain teammate Achraf Hakimi after the latter`s heroics helped Morocco in reaching the AFCON quarter-finals on Tuesday.
The PSG right-back was his country`s match-winner in their 2-1 Round of 16 victory against Malawi. Just as he did a week ago against Gabon (2-2), the Rouge-et-Bleu right-back scored a sublime free-kick, his sixth international goal, and earned himself the man of the match honours.
“ACHRAF HAKIMI. BEST RB IN THE WORLD. GOOD NIGHT GUYS,” Kylian Mbappe tweeted. To which Hakimi replied: “Je t`aime.” In the quarter-final, former Paris Saint-Germain coach Vahid Halilhodzic and his team will face either Cote d`Ivoire or Egypt in Yaounde on Sunday.
