The French star Kylian Mbappe reacted on Tuesday to his PSG teammate Achraf Hakimi’s performance in the 2021 African cup of Nations (CAN).

The international player Achraf Hakimi scored Morocco’s victory goal against Malawi (2-1), enabling the national team to qualify for the quarter-final.

The 23-year-old player was awarded Man of the match right after CAN’s round of 16 game.

Achraf Hakimi expressed by the end of the game his condolences to Olembe stadium’s victims, saying on his Facebook page, “8 people who died yesterday at Olembe Stadium will always be in our memory. Football takes a back seat today, despite it is a happy day for our country after the qualification to the quarter-final in CAN.”

The 2021 African Cup of Nations has begun on January 9 and will last until February 6, in Yaoundé, Cameroon.
