Story of the day
Brothers at PSG. Rivals in Boston.
Achraf Hakimi was born in Madrid to a mother who cleaned houses and a father who sold goods on the street. He came up through Real Madrid's academy, then chose Morocco — his parents' country — over Spain. In Qatar he knocked Spain out with a Panenka, then lost the semifinal to France and his best friend Kylian Mbappé. Four years later: France again. Quarterfinal. Boston. The friendship pauses at kickoff.
