Kylian Mbappé was present in the stands at Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium to support Morocco during the match against Mali. The Real Madrid star attended the game to back his close friend Achraf Hakimi, who started the match on the bench.
When Mbappé appeared on the giant screens, he was smiling and wearing the Morocco national team shirt with the number 2, Hakimi’s jersey, under his jacket. The gesture sparked a strong reaction from the crowd, with a loud ovation echoing through the stadium.
The moment highlighted both the friendship between the two players and the electric atmosphere surrounding Morocco’s tournament in Rabat.
