The Super Eagles and Atalanta forward Ademola Lookman becomes the first and only African player in the history of any UEFA competition to score a hat trick in the final match of the tournament.
Lookman was an integral part of Atalanta’s attack in the UEFA Europa League final fixture against the unbeaten Bayer Leverkusen. The Nigerian star took charge of the left wing and was a thorn in the flesh of the club of his fellow countryman, Victor Boniface.
