Hakimi's Three Goals Keep PSG on Top as Le Havre Concede Five

Achraf Hakimi's three goals and two assists were decisive in Paris Saint-Germain's 5-0 win over Le Havre, who sit last in Ligue 1. With this victory, PSG reached 20 points from nine matches and kept their place at the top of the table. Josh Maja scored the first goal of the match to give the home side the lead.

After assisting Mika Godts' goal, Hakimi turned the score in PSG's favour in the 28th minute. The Moroccan player found the net from a free kick in the 55th minute, and in the 69th minute completed his hat trick with a shot that deflected off an opponent. Senny Mayulu made it 4-1 with a goal in the 62nd minute.

Head coach Luis Enrique said that injuries had allowed them to rest many of their key players. Stressing that squad depth is essential for the cup competitions, Enrique welcomed the chances given to Quentin Ndjantou and David Boly, who played his first Ligue 1 match.

In other matches, Lille beat Lens with a goal from Olivier Giroud in the 86th minute to move ahead of Rennes. Nice thrashed Rennes 5-0, and Elye Wahi's hat trick lifted his team to seventh place. Le Havre suffered their fifth consecutive defeat and remain at the bottom of the table with two points.
