Justin Kluivert became the first player to score a hat trick of penalties in a Premier League match in Bournemouth's 4-2 win at Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday.

Bournemouth forward Evanilson also became the first player to win three penalties in a single Premier League fixture.

Kluivert, who is the son of former Netherlands, Ajax and Barcelona legend Patrick, converted from the spot in the third, 18th and 74th minute of what was his 50th appearance for Bournemouth to help earn Andoni Iraola's side all three points at Molineux.

The win provisionally moved Bournemouth up to 11th in the table, while Wolves dropped into the relegation zone.

The 25-year-old joined Bournemouth from Roma in 2023.
