Nicolò Tresoldi makes UEFA Champions League history

Germany U21 youth international Nicolò Tresoldi made UEFA Champions League history on Tuesday night, becoming only the second player to score a hat-trick in a single match at the San Siro as Club Brugge beat Inter 4-3 in a spectacle under the lights.

In doing so, Tresoldi repeated the feat that Gareth Bale achieved with Tottenham, against Inter, in 2020. “It was unbelievable, indescribable,” he told Sky Italia.

“I’ve dreamt of an evening like this so often, but to score three goals and win here at the San Siro is beyond words. “My whole family and my friends were also in the stands, it’s simply fantastic.” Where do Tresoldi’s allegiances lie?
