Hakimi Hat-Trick, Historic Win Propel PSG Past Le Havre 5-1

Paris Saint-Germain defeated bottom-placed Le Havre 5-1 on Friday 30 October 2026 in Ligue 1, with Achraf Hakimi delivering an exceptional performance to extend the reigning French and European champions' winning streak. The Moroccan right back scored his first career hat-trick and contributed two assists, playing a direct role in all five PSG goals. This marked only the fourth instance in the past four seasons across Europe's top five leagues of a single player recording five goal contributions in one match; the last player to achieve this feat in Ligue 1 was Neymar in August 2022.

Luis Enrique made significant squad rotations for the match, resting key players including Marquinhos, Nuno Mendes, Ousmane Dembélé, and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. Despite the absences, PSG came from behind after Josh Maja gave Le Havre an 18th-minute lead. Hakimi set up Mika Godts to equalise two minutes later, then scored twice more before the break—first with a direct finish and then with a curved 20-yard free kick. Senny Mayulu added PSG's fourth goal early in the second half before Hakimi completed his hat-trick in the 69th minute. The victory marked PSG's ninth consecutive win across all competitions and their sixth successive Ligue 1 victory.

The result also cemented a coaching milestone for Luis Enrique, who claimed his 127th win as PSG manager, surpassing Laurent Blanc's previous record for the club. PSG's nearest rivals Rennes lost 5-2 at Nice on the same day, allowing the champions to extend their lead to four points atop the Ligue 1 table with 20 points after nine games. PSG faces Villarreal in the Champions League on Tuesday before hosting Troyes in their next league fixture.
