Achraf Hakimi appeared to mock Jack Grealish on social media after PSG’s 2-0 win over Manchester City by posting a picture of the England international flattened after the Moroccan’s challenge.

Hakimi’s PSG side ran out comfortable winners against Pep Guardiola’s men on Tuesday’s Champions League night to claim their first European win of the season after goals from Idrissa Gueye and Lionel Messi’s first strike for the French giants.

Immediately after the game on Tuesday night, the Moroccan defender took to Instagram to post an image of Grealish, who Hakimi was marking on the PSG’s right-hand side, floored after a tackle by the 22-year-old at the Parc des Princes.

Hakimi captioned the post: ‘Big UCL night’ and before placing the picture ahead of images showing the Moroccan celebrating and playing with his PSG team-mates.

Grealish coming up against Hakimi promised to be one of the more intriguing individual battles of Tuesday evening’s Champions League spectacle, but the PSG defender ended up limiting the England international to limited joy down the left.

Fans on social media were quick to notice Hakimi’s apparent brutal choice of picture to post online after the European victory.

One fan tweeted: ‘Just checked my Instagram and saw this! No way Hakimi actually posted that picture of him with Jack Grealish lying on the floor as the first frame!’

Another fan posted: ‘loooool na hakimi doesn’t rate grealish at all’

Meanwhile, one account said: ‘Achraf Hakimi done Jack Grealish f***ing dirty!’

One fan posted the picture in question and captioned it: ‘As fans of English clubs would say : “Grealish didn’t pass the Hakimi test”‘

The result means PSG now top Group A on four points, level with Belgian side Club Bruges who held Mauricio Pochettino’s side to a draw on matchday one.

Grealish’s City, meanwhile, have to settle for third place at the moment on three points, though face a double header against the Belgian club in October and November.
