Achraf Hakimi, Morocco, Scotland and Mohamed Ouahbi
20 June 2026
Achraf Hakimi was booed by Scotland fans during Morocco’s 1-0 World Cup win on the day a French appeals court ordered him to stand trial on rape charges. Hakimi denies wrongdoing and captained Morocco throughout the match.
Morocco coach Mohamed Ouahbi said the team remained behind Hakimi and praised his performance despite the hostile reaction. Hakimi posted that he had waited for trial since day one, while the plaintiff’s lawyer welcomed the court ruling.
