Key Points:
Mbappé was spotted in the VIP box during Morocco’s Group D match against Mali.
He wore Hakimi’s number 2 shirt under his jacket in a show of personal support.
The Moroccan defender reportedly invited Mbappé and his entire family to the match.
Hakimi, still recovering from injury, did not feature in the 1-1 draw.
