Based on a definition
32、 given by the Oxford Dictionary,a hat trick is essentially an achievement,by either the offensive or defensive player in a game,who achieves a performance by completing three goals,within a given time or within the fixed rules,completing which would earn you a “hat trick”.This could be the scoring o

34、ame,and that collection is awarded to the player.So when a bowler named H.H.Stephenson took three wickets (板球中的三柱门) in a row with three successive balls,the observers bought a hat and gifted it to him along with one of the three balls,which later spread to other sports events like soccer and became
35、a tradition.

36、a player scoring three goals in a single game at any point of time is known as a hat trick.Any goal scored in a penalty shootout (点球) is not added towards a hat trick,but shots taken in added time and extra time still count. A player who achieves this is awarded. A “perfect hat trick” is a type of h
