The reason Hakimi was booed by Scottish fans.

Achraf Hakimi was booed repeatedly by Scottish fans whenever he touched the ball, days after news was confirmed that he was about to stand trial on rape charges.

Hakimi has been under constant attack.

In Morocco's narrow 1-0 victory over Scotland in Group C on the morning of June 20th, Hakimi became the center of attention in an unwanted way. The PSG defender was constantly booed by Scottish fans whenever he touched the ball, creating a tense atmosphere throughout the match.

Whistles from the stands began early in the match and grew increasingly intense. The climax came in the 20th minute when Hakimi took a corner kick, before becoming the target of further criticism after a foul on Kieran Tierney.

The controversy stemmed from information regarding the 27-year-old player's private life. Just days before the match, French judicial authorities confirmed that Hakimi would face trial on rape charges related to an incident that occurred in February 2023.
