Best hat-trick of all time?

Maybe we can get a bit more agreement on hat-tricks rather than goals:

^Bergkamp vs Leicester in '97

the other week Mark Roberts scored a hatitrick of penalties for Ayr United and then got himself sent off for violent conduct. pretty good going.

Rivaldo against Valencia in 2001. This is about the best hat trick it's humanly possible to score imo, so I think we're probably looking for the no.2 on this thread.

rivaldo vs valencia, and i've not read the thread yet so apologies if it's there. will never be bettered because of context, let alonethe quality of each goal and the capping bicycle

lol, ok IK

no2-- bergkamp's good, kanu vs chelsea will go down as a great one too

Should really have taken the three or four seconds needed to read the whole thread there.

lisbie vs liverpool

who's got the time these days rtbh

rivaldo's 2nd = keeper error

Not only did I know which bit would be picked at, I knew exactly who would doing the picking

hahaha I'm getting predictable aren't I

2 1/2 brilliant goals ain't bad, not seen many like it

not a keeper error, hit hard quick and true during a blind spot imo, good strike.

wonder has sam ever heard of rivaldo tbh,

bergkamp one is similar in that #2 is the result of questionable defending but the other two are orgasmic

wonder has sam ever heard of rivaldo tbh,

wtf? although sure i do still remember more about his lol milan time than when he was at barca.

i remember the 'player of the 00's' debate on the other thread (Messi LJ radge thread iirc) where you maybe had a leetle scoff when he came up as maybe the world's best 2000-2, 's'all!

think that might have been more of a 'wtf overlooking pires? fuck you world/ also not as good as zizou or figo or rui costa or batistuta or cannavaro or henry or van nistelrooy or the milan back line or juve backline need to stop naming ppl imo' type of thing

because ya know, he wouldn't make a personal 00-05 or whatever team. maybe not even the bench.

think in the period named he was as good as figo/zizou/not dignifying rest with response tbh, but it's true to say his star shone bright and fierce but none too long. after 2002 WC it was pretty much over for him as a top top ployer iirc

think that might have been more of a 'wtf overlooking pires? fuck you world/ also not as good as zizou or figo or rui costa or batistuta or cannavaro or henry or van nistelrooy or the milan back line or juve backline need to stop naming ppl imo' type of thing

rivaldo was beter than all but one of those

Let's get Gareth Bale up here - that was pretty damn fine as hat-tricks go

i context it was great, but i dunno.

it was good tho, wunnit

not necessarily the best but still the fastest in the pl

Not the best but enough to convince me Celtic should have pushed the boat out to keep this promising young Welsh lad.

(oh and turn the sound down)

This, without a doubt. Left foot, right foot, header + against Spurs + I was there.

can we also do a 'best hat-trick by shittest player' youtube tangent itt?

OK. Can't find footage of Lee Naylor's hat-trick in the Tommy Burns tribute match, but they were all really good goals (albeit against a team of auld yins), and no-one except me and onimo likes him (seriously, we were his only two "fans" on facebook at one point, he's up to six now though since he moved to Cardiff!), so I think that counts.

Cavani's just scored a belter for Napoli against Juventus - three superb powerful headers, capped off with a proper diving header flourish, then smoke everywhere

first two here - great headers (though I thought the first one should have been cleared). Wish I spoke Italian as this commentator guy's going mental - picked up a "MAMMA MIA!" at 2.22 :)

third and finest

lol third goal was actually a diving back-heel!

best angle at 1.08

no fucking way! seems so obvious now.

Oh wow. Does that make it better or worse?!

i just shat bricks

are you alright xp? a diving overhead backheel is, ftr, better than a diving header yes

vdv still has best of these

Dirk Kuyt, ladies and gentlemen.

nuyt

can't find the third one tbh but watch the whole clip it's full of tasty yugoslavian runs as well as mental comentary

blimey @ Neymar against Internacional last night

Pogrebnyak got the "perfect" hat-trick at the weekend, although the goals themselves weren't THAT great. What % of HTs are perfect?

Jesus, Neymar's 2nd goal!!!

I know! The finishing touch alone is extraordinary.

i love etoo's hat trick celebration.
