Cole Palmer accomplished an incredible feat on Saturday, scoring four goals in one half in Chelsea's 4-2 win over Brighton. Palmer becomes the first player in Premier League history to accomplish the first-half haul.
Palmer started things off with a goal in the 21st minute, before scoring again with a penalty in the 28th. The 22-year-old midfielder then picked up the hat trick in the 31st minute off of a stunning free kick outside the box.
