At 04:00 Beijing time on January 4, the 19th round of La Liga, Kirk opened the record, Sanchet wore a hat, and Athletic Bilbao defeated Osasuna 3-1.
Sanchet was born in 2000 and is only 21 years old this year. Sanchet originally debuted at the Osasuna Academy before joining Athletic Bilbao's echelon. In fact, he made his La Liga debut in Bilbao in 2019, and his first assist in La Liga was also made by Osasuna, who scored his first La Liga goal against Mallorca in the 32nd round of the season.
Prior to this campaign, Sanchet made 56 appearances in La Liga, scoring four goals, and his personal single-season goal record was only 2 goals scored last season. He didn't score his first goal of the season until the last round against Real Madrid, and now he's finished his first Hat-Trick in La Liga and a new single-season scoring record for his career.
In addition, Sanchet broke two historical records: first, he became the youngest hat-wearing player in La Liga in the 21st century at 21 years and 253 days; second, he was the first post-00 in history to complete a hat in La Liga.
In the last 3 league rounds, Sanchet has been directly involved in 5 La Liga goals! Against Real Betis, he delivered two assists to help Bilbao win 3-2; against Real Madrid, he pulled back a city for Bilbao but lost 1-2; in this round against Osasuna, he used a hat-trick to help Bilbao complete a 3-1 comeback.
