Chelsea playmaker Cole Palmer has become the first player in the 32-year history of the Premier League to score four goals in the first half of a match.
The England international's flurry of goals came in a 20-minute span in Chelsea's 4-2 win against Brighton at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.
Palmer scored in the 21st, 28th, 31st and 41st minutes, with the haul including a penalty as well as a long-range free kick that completed his hat trick.
No player has ever scored so many goals before halftime in a single match, according to Opta, which provides statistics to the Premier League. "When I missed my first chance I was upset but with the way they played and their high line, I felt we'd get more chances." Palmer also had a four-goal haul for Chelsea last season in a 6-0 win over Everton in April, also at home.
