According to “Varzesh3,” the first half of the match between Atletico Madrid and Real Sociedad in the 35th round of La Liga ended with a 4-0 lead for Diego Simeone’s team, thanks to Alexander Sorloth’s four goals.

Just seven minutes into the game, the Norwegian striker scored the first goal with a stunning left-footed shot from Pablo Barrios’ excellent cross.

Only three minutes later, the 195 cm tall Atletico Madrid striker struck again, this time with a left-footed ground shot from Samuel Lino’s pass, making it 2-0.

Just one minute after this goal, Sorloth completed his unforgettable hat-trick in four minutes. This time, a major defensive error by the visitors led to Sorloth scoring his third goal with a left-footed volley.

Sorloth’s hunger for goals didn’t stop there, and he once again delighted the Rojiblancos fans. This time, Javi Galan provided the assist, and Sorloth controlled the ball precisely before scoring his fourth goal with another left-footed shot, ending the first half with a dream lead for Simeone’s team.

This was his 20th goal of the season, and interestingly, before this match, Sorloth had only scored 16 goals in La Liga. Additionally, Sorloth set the record for the fastest hat-trick in La Liga history in this game.

Interestingly, Sorloth was just one minute and 30 seconds short of breaking the record for the fastest hat-trick in Europe’s top five leagues, held by Sadio Mane during his time at Southampton.
