Achraf's worst day at PSG

To date, Achraf Hakimi had been PSG's best player this long season. The Moroccan international had emerged as a plane on the right wing and had even given his team points, as in the victory in extremis on 22 September against Metz. Nevertheless, yesterday, against Rennes, the former Real Madrid player suffered a lot and was exposed in defense before the speed of rival extremes.

Although against Manchester City, Achraf had contained Grealish, preceded by the great work in the coverage of Ander Herrera, who did not play as a starter yesterday, against Rennes the story was quite different. Sulemana, left winger of the Breton team of only 19 years old, was a nightmare for the side, who did not have help at any time from Di María and that he suffered to contain the speed of the Ghanaian. In fact, Rennes' 1-0 is originated by his band, in a great center of Sulemana that Laborde finished off in anticipation of Nuno Mendes.

Cold in attack, weak in defense and, above all, contained at all times by Sulemana's attacks, Achraf continues to leave doubts defensively when PSG plays with a defense of 4. The right-back of the Parisians feels more comfortable in a system of three centrals in which he acts as a lane (at Inter and Dortmund he shone like this), the defensive aspect being one of the pending subjects to fully polish his potential.

Despite Achraf's performance against Rennes, in Paris they are still delighted with the player's performance. What happened yesterday can be considered an accident, since it was the first defeat of the season for PSG. Together with Ander Herrera, he continues to be the best Parisian of the season and the right wing is in a safe place to face the important games of the season.
