When have two players from the same team scored a hat-trick in a single Premier League match? (2024)

This has only happened three times in the English top flight

Premier Leagueis not only the richest and most popular football league in the world, but it is also one of the toughest leagues in the world. The completion at the top of the league, the midtable teams and even the relegation battle is growing ever tougher each season. The result are never guaranteed in the English top flight.

Players have found it difficult to adapt to the high intensity and level of the English game. While some have found the high media coverage and media plaudits difficult to overcome. While some players like Erling Haaland, have adapted to the league and have made it look like a walk in the park.

Scoring a hat-trick is always special on any day. While some sides have managed to get two players with 3 goals in a single Premier League match. Here are all the instances of the same:

Jermaine Pennant, Robert Pires (Arsenal vs Southampton, May 2003)

Arsenal win 6-1 against Southampton in the Premier League on May 7 2003. Robert Pires opened the scoring in the 9th minute. Pennant scored two goals in the 16th and 19th minute to hand the home side a comfortable 3-0 lead within 20 minutes. Pires scored again in the 23rd minute, while Pennant completed his hat-trick in the 26th minute. Pires completed his hat trick in the second half. This was the first time two players from the same team had scored a hat trick in a Premier League game. The final score was 6-1 in favour of Arsenal.

While Manchester City, born and bread star Phil Foden also scored a hat-trick against the red side of Manchester.
