“We are here in the stadium, the Education City Stadium. Good! 40 thousand people can be here. France Tunisia. I hope we’re gonna win. And after we play against Morocco, and… I have to destroy my friend [Hakimi],” Kylian Mbappe told beIN Sports back in January.
“I’m gonna kick him [Mbappe],” Achraf Hakimi replied.
“That will break my heart a little bit, but you know the football, it is what it is. It is what it is. I have to ki** him!” Mbappe added.
When Mbappe predicted meeting Hakimi
At the start of the year on a tour of Qatar with PSG, France star Kylian Mbappe talked about ‘destroying’ his close friend and Morocco rival Achraf Hakimi at the 2022 World Cup. The pair will face off in the semi-finals on Thursday morning (AEDT).
Wow, this is quite a prediction! France will actually take on Morocco in the World Cup semifinals on Wednesday – something that was really difficult to predict before the tournament.
Mbappe and Hakimi both play for PSG.
