Sadio Mane surprised by hat-trick record

By , Reporter
Southampton's Sadio Mane is surprised to hear that he broke the record for the fastest Premier League hat-trick in their 6-1 thrashing of Aston Villa.

Southampton's Sadio Mane was surprised to hear that he broke the record for the fastest Premier League hat-trick in history.

The Senegal international netted three times in 2 minutes and 56 seconds in the first half against Aston Villa on Saturday.

Two more goals from Shane Long and another from Graziano Pelle sealed a thumping 6-1 win for the Saints.

Speaking to BBC Sport after the match, Mane said: "Really? It is the fastest Premier League hat-trick? The most important thing today is the victory.

"We have a chance to finish in the Europa League spots. We will try to win the next game against Manchester City and why not win it? We have a great team and last week was not easy but we have to work hard every game."

The win moves Southampton into sixth place as they battle for a Europa League spot next season.
