Brian Brobbey put in an impressive performance last Sunday by scoring a hat-trick in the match against Manchester City. However, despite his great performance, it was not enough for Sunderland to achieve victory; the final score was 5-3 in favor of the home club. This remarkable event has placed Brobbey in an exclusive group of Premier League players who have ever scored a hat-trick and yet lost. Matt Le Tissier, a legendary Southampton player, personally welcomed him to this select club.
It is the sixth time in the Premier League that a player has scored a hat-trick and still left empty-handed. The last time this happened was in 2007, when Roque Santa Cruz scored three times for Blackburn Rovers, but his team lost to Wigan Athletic. The other four players who have ever been in this situation are Dion Dublin and Dwight Yorke, in addition to Le Tissier himself, who has had it happen to him twice.
A look at history shows that Le Tissier is not only known for his talent, but was also unlucky in moments when he scored three goals. He scored his hat-tricks against Oldham Athletic and Nottingham Forest, but both times this did not lead to a victory for his team. The list of players who have scored and lost a hat-trick includes these dates and matches:
- 08/05/93: Matt Le Tissier - Oldham Athletic 4-3 Southampton
- 19/08/95: Matt Le Tissier - Southampton 3-4 Nottingham Forest
- 04/12/95: Dion Dublin - Sheffield Wednesday 4-3 Coventry City
- 30/09/96: Dwight Yorke - Newcastle United 4-3 Aston Villa
- 15/12/07: Roque Santa Cruz - Wigan Athletic 5-3 Blackburn Rovers
- 20/09/26: Brian Brobbey - Manchester City 5-3 Sunderland
After almost nineteen years, the company has now expanded with Brobbey, who has achieved fame with his hat-trick at the Etihad Stadium.reported. Le Tissier responded to his performance on social media, highlighting how rare it is to be in this situation. “Not many players have scored a hat trick and still lost,” he wrote on X.
Le Tissier, who has scored four hat-tricks in his Premier League career, knew that with his other two hat-tricks he did leave the field as a winner with his team. As far as Dutch players are concerned, Ruud van Nistelrooij and Robin van Persie are the most successful, both with five hat-tricks to their name. The record for the most hat-tricks in the Premier League goes to Sergio Agüero, who achieved this no fewer than twelve times.
What's happening now
Sunderland will have to analyze how they can counter Manchester City's strong attacks in future matches. Brobbey's form could be crucial to their season outlook, especially if they want to challenge for a better position in the Premier League. The club will also need to work on their defensive organization to avoid similar results in the future.
