UECL: Orban scores fastest-ever hat-trick to lift Genk

Nigeria forward, Gift Orban scored the fastest-ever hat-trick in the UEFA Europa Conference League as KAA Gent thrashed Istanbul Basaksehir 4-1 on Wednesday night.

Orban was on target in the 31st, 32nd and 34 minutes respectively.

The 20-year-old also scored Gent’s only goal in the first leg which ended in a 1-1 draw.

Gent scaled through to the quarter-finals 5-2 on aggregate.

Orban has now netted five goals in the competition, a goal behind leading scorer Luka Jovic.

It would be recalled that the young striker scored four times in Gent’s 6-2 win at Zulte Waregem last weekend.

He has now netted 12 times in nine appearances across all competitions for Gent this season.
