Everyone Scores a Hat-Trick Against Barcelona These Days (Photo)
Borja Iglesias scored all three goals for Celta Vigo in their match against Barcelona, completing a hat-trick just like Serhou Guirassy did against Wojciech Szczęsny.
According to reports, the thrilling match between Barcelona and Celta Vigo in the 32nd week of La Liga ended in a 3-3 draw at the Montjuïc Stadium. Hansi Flick’s team is now on the verge of losing crucial points at home.
Just four days after Barcelona’s 3-1 defeat to Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League, where Serhou Guirassy scored a hat-trick, Celta Vigo’s experienced striker Borja Iglesias repeated the feat, netting three goals against Barcelona and Wojciech Szczęsny.
Although Barcelona started the match strongly and took the lead through Ferran Torres in the 13th minute, Iglesias equalized just two minutes later with an assist from Pablo Durán. A bizarre mistake by Szczęsny left the goal open, allowing Iglesias to score with a simple tap-in.
The match progressed to the second half, where Iglesias capitalized on a defensive error by Frenkie de Jong to score his second goal. Just 10 minutes later, Iglesias completed his hat-trick with another brilliant solo effort, leaving Szczęsny helpless once again.
Iglesias became the second player this season to score a hat-trick against Barcelona, following Serhou Guirassy. However, he was substituted in the 73rd minute, missing the chance to add to his tally.
