Real Madrid's Brazilian sensation Rodrygo became the second teenager this season and fifth overall to score a UEFA Champions League hat-trick, as Real Madrid thumped Galatasaray 6-0.

The three-goal haul made Rodrygo the third 18-year-old and the second-youngest player ever to score a hat-trick in the competition. Los Blancos legend Raul remains the youngest player to score three goals in a UEFA Champions League game, a feat he achieved when he netted thrice against Ferencvaros in the 1995-96 season.

In the process, Rodrygo, who scored a perfect hat-trick (left foot, right foot, header), became the 96th different player to score a UEFA Champions League hat-trick and the youngest Brazilian player to do so.

#3 Kylian Mbappe (Paris St. Germain)

Kylian Mbappé became the 95th different player to score a Champions League hat-trick as the World-Cup winner came off the bench to play a starring role in Paris St. Germain's 5-0 victory away from home against Club Brugge.

It marked the fourth hat-trick by a PSG player in the competition, and the first since Neymar netted thrice in the French capital club's 6-1 win over Crvena Zvezda in a group-stage game last season.

At the age of 20 years and 306 days, Mbappe became the youngest player in Champions League history to score 15 goals in the competition, a record that was previously held by Lionel Messi.
