Everton striker, Richarlison, scored a hat-trick as defending Olympic champions, Brazil, started their Tokyo 2020 tournament with a convincing 4-2 victory over Germany in their Group D match on Thursday.
The Brazilian became the first Premier League player to score a hat-trick in an Olympic competition, scoring his goals in the space of 30 minutes.
Richarlison netted Brazil’s opener seven minutes into the game before scoring a header to extend the defending champions’ lead to 2-0.
Things soon got worse for the Germans in the 30th minute when Richarlison completed his hat-trick, leaving the German defence in complete chaos.
