Talking about fast hat tricks, the first thing that comes in our mind may be Lewandowski's '5 goals in 9 minutes'. However, the hat trick in these five goals is not as memorable as some of the world's fastest hat tricks.
And now here are the top 5 fastest hat tricks of all time.
5. Jimmy O'Connor, Shelburne vs. Bohemians, 1967: 2 minutes, 13 seconds (0.74 minutes per goal)
4. Eduardo Maglioni, Independiente vs. Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata, 1973: 1 minute, 51 seconds (0.62 minutes per goal)
3. Tommy Ross, Ross Country vs. Nairn County, 1964: 1 minute, 30 seconds (0.50 minutes per goal)
2. Magnus Arvidsson, Hassleholms vs. Landskrona, 1995: 1 minute, 29 seconds (0.49 minutes per goal)
1. Alex Torr, Rawson Spring vs. Winn Gardens, 2013: 1 minute, 10 seconds (0.39 minutes per goal)
For comparison, here is Lewandowski' wonder:
Robert Lewandowski, Bayern Munich vs. Wolfsburg, 2015: 3 minutes, 53 seconds (1.29 minutes per goal)
So, it turns out that Lewandowski's performance is actually about 3x slower than the fastest hat trick ever scored.
