Gonzalo Ramos’ Hat-trick is the first of this Qatar 2022 World Cup. The previous World Cup, Russia 2018 had 2: Harry Kane’s against Panama, and Cristiano Ronaldo’s (whom Ramos replaced in the game against Switzerland) against Spain. Furthermore, the Benfica striker is the fourth player to score 3 or more goals in a World Cup game.

Eusebio in England 1966 against North Korea (that day he scored 4 goals), Pauleta in Korea-Japan 2002 against Poland and Cristiano Ronaldo in Russia 2018 against Spain were the other three Portuguese who achieved this feat.
