PSG delivered a historic 4-0 victory over Real Madrid at MetLife Stadium to secure their place in the Club World Cup final. Fabián Ruiz netted twice, Dembélé dazzled with a spectacular goal, and Gonçalo Ramos sealed the scoreline. But beyond the dominant performance, it was Achraf Hakimi who caught the attention with a performance tinged with nostalgia.

The Moroccan right-back was electric down the flank, repeatedly breaking lines, linking up cleverly in the middle, and proving decisive in the lead-up to the second goal. His relentless presence posed constant problems for his former club.

After the match, Hakimi made a statement that struck a chord with Madridistas. “It wasn’t me who decided to leave Madrid. It was their decision,” he said calmly. His exit five years ago came not out of personal ambition, but because the club's board opted to sell him, prioritizing financial stability. At the time, Hakimi had just returned from a strong loan spell at Borussia Dortmund before being transferred to Inter Milan for €43 million.
