France striker Ousmane Dembele made history on Friday by scoring a hat-trick in his team’s World Cup final group game against Norway.
Dembele was outstanding in France’s 4-1 victory over Norway, scoring three goals and Desire Doue adding one.
According to OptaJoe, Dembele’s hat-trick came only 32 minutes into the game, making it the second earliest a FIFA World Cup hat-trick has been scored in a contest.
The Paris Saint-Germain star is only behind Erich Probst in 1954 for Austria against Czechoslovakia (24 minutes).
