Egyptian striker Ahmed "Koka" Hassan scored a hat trick in Rio Ave's routing of Estoril in the Portuguese League on Sunday.

He opened the scoring on the 38th minute before adding the second just before the break.

The international striker made it three 15 minutes after the break, helping his side to a  5-1 win over their opponent.

The young striker scored for Rio Ave in their vital 1-0 win at Sweden's IFK Göteborg in the Europa League's third qualifying round two weeks ago.

The 21-year-old was named to the Pharaohs' squad which will prepare for two upcoming clashes - Senegal and Tunisia in the Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers next month.
