Hakimi’s five-goal hand in PSG’s 5–1 win at Le Havre

Player snapshot

Achraf Hakimi started in defence on the right of Paris Saint-Germain’s 4-3-3 at Le Havre on 30 October, wore number two and was replaced after 71 minutes of a 5–1 Ligue 1 win. Source 1Source 2

His direct involvement covered every Paris Saint-Germain goal: two assists, for strikes in the 26th and 62nd minutes, and goals of his own in the 28th, 55th and 69th minutes. Source 1

The first of Hakimi’s three goals was confirmed by a VAR event two minutes after it was recorded, while the two assists were credited in the fixture event log rather than inferred from the scoreline. Source 1

Production

Hakimi’s match return was three goals and two assists from 71 minutes, equating to five direct goal contributions at a rate of 6.34 per 90 minutes for this match alone. Source 2

The volume behind it was unusually broad for a defender: he took six shots, put five on target, completed 57 of 63 passes, created three key passes and attempted four dribbles, completing one. Source 2

His defensive-work return was smaller but not absent, with one tackle and one interception, while he won three of nine duels and committed two fouls. Source 2

Paris Saint-Germain had 71% possession, attempted 15 shots and registered 3.99 expected goals, so the performance came within a team display which spent long spells in control and generated a significant attacking volume. Source 3

The separate Ligue 1 season ledger supplied for Hakimi lists seven appearances, six starts and 498 minutes, alongside 443 passes at 89% accuracy, 10 key passes, 23 dribble attempts, five tackles and seven interceptions. Source 4

Derived from those 498 minutes, that ledger works out at roughly 80.1 passes, 1.8 key passes, 4.2 dribble attempts, 0.9 tackles and 1.3 interceptions per 90 minutes. Source 4

There is an important reporting limitation: the same season ledger currently lists zero goals and zero assists, which does not align with the completed Le Havre fixture record of three goals and two assists. Source 1Source 4

Accordingly, the match figures stand as the definitive account of this game, but this report does not recalculate or claim an updated season-long goals-and-assists total from the two returns. Source 1Source 4

Style fingerprint

The lineup places Hakimi in the defensive line rather than among the front three, yet his output combined finishing, final-ball creation and regular ball use from that starting role. Source 1Source 2

Three key passes alongside two credited assists show that his chance creation was not confined to the two final actions recorded as assists. Source 2

Five shots on target from six attempts gave the scoring burst a strong accuracy component, rather than being driven solely by repeated low-quality attempts. Source 2

His 63 passes and 57 completed passes also put him materially into Paris Saint-Germain’s circulation during a match in which the side completed 710 passes. Source 2Source 3

The defensive sample should be kept in proportion: one tackle, one interception and three successful duels are a narrow 71-minute snapshot, not grounds to redraw his wider defensive profile. Source 2

Comparables

This scouting read stays with the individual fixture and the supplied season ledger rather than making unsupported league-wide comparisons with other defenders. Source 2Source 4

The useful internal comparison is therefore between the season ledger’s recorded attacking totals and this match’s event record, which currently point in different directions. Source 1Source 4

The Read

Hakimi’s display was not merely a high-scoring cameo: he started at right-back, created two goals, scored three and left the pitch with 19 minutes remaining. Source 1Source 2

The most revealing part of the match profile is the variety of contribution—three finishes, two assists, three key passes and 57 completed passes—rather than any single headline number in isolation. Source 2

At team level, Paris Saint-Germain’s 3.99 expected goals and 10 shots on target supply context for a five-goal win, but Hakimi alone supplied five direct goal contributions. Source 2Source 3

Temporal Read

This is a recap of the completed Ligue 1 match on 30 October 2026, not a projection from it. Source 1

Hakimi’s hat-trick and two assists are secure fixture facts, while the discrepancy with the separately supplied season ledger means the responsible conclusion is to treat this as an exceptional, fully documented match sample without publishing a revised season total. Source 1Source 4
