FATORDA: FC Goa striker Ferran Corominas continued his impressive run in his debut season as he scored the fastest hat-trick in Hero Indian Super League following their 5-2 win over Kerala Blasters, at Nehru Stadium, here, on Saturday.
The striker, who has been creating records after records, now holds the record of completing the treble within seven minutes – the fastest in the competition so far.
“The hat-trick is not just the fastest in the ISL, but the fastest I have scored in my career too,” said jubilant Ferran Corominas.
The Spaniard gave the hosts the lead in the 48th minute after Kerala had levelled terms just before the breather, 2-2. Coro scored his second with his cheeky lofted shot, which beat the onrushing keeper in the 51st minute before guiding home Manual Lanzarote’s cross to take the match ball home in the 55th minute.
“The chances came one after another and my duty is to take the advantage and I managed to do it,” explained Coro.
The striker just can’t stop scoring, as now he has seven goals to his name in just four games.
The striker said he was happy to score but moreover delighted to contribute in team’s victory.
The Spaniard is the only player to score back-to-back hat-tricks in the competition, yet another record to his name. Surely the Gaurs have found their own hero in making – Ferran Corominas!
