Red-hot Patson Daka nets hat-trick to lead Red Bull Salzburg past Mattersburg

Patson Daka stole the show at Pappelstadion, scoring a hat-trick to help Red Bull Salzburg to a 3-0 victory against Mattersburg in Saturday’s Austrian Bundesliga game.

Having found the back of the net in his side’s thumping of Ebreichsdorf in Wednesday’s Cup tie, the 21-year-old maintained his form against Franz Ponweiser’s men.

Daka, making his 12th league appearance and seventh start this season, opened the scoring in the 34th minute of the encounter.

The Zambia international then doubled his team’s lead seven minutes later before completing his hat-trick in stoppage-time.

The striker featured throughout the game along with Cameroon international Jerome Onguene, who made his ninth league appearance.
