'Easy as that' - how Kluivert made history with hat-trick of penalties

Justin Kluivert has always had big shoes to fill as a professional footballer, being the son of Netherlands legend and Champions League winner Patrick.

But the 25-year-old has achieved something his father - who had a season at Newcastle - never did, a Premier League record for scoring a hat-trick of penalties in the same match.

His treble, which helped Bournemouth win 4-2 against Wolves at Molineux on Saturday, was a masterclass in how to take a spot-kick.

Not only was it the first hat-trick of penalties in the Premier League era, but also the first in the English top flight since Ken Barnes scored three for Manchester City in a 6-2 victory against Everton at Maine Road on 7 December, 1957.
