Three consecutive goals, a hat-trick scored in just seven minutes, then a fourth, just before half-time. Stade Brestois player Kamory Doumbia opened the scoring with a wonderful volley in the 22nd minute during the Breton derby against Lorient this Wednesday. In perfect balance, the 20-year-old midfielder placed his right shot in the opponent’s top corner.

The Malian had only scored five league goals since the start of his professional career. In 45 minutes, he practically doubled his total. The player on loan from Stade de Reims even came close to the record for the fastest hat-trick in Ligue 1 history, co-held by Loïs Openda (during a 4-0 victory at Clermont in March 2023) and Matt Moussilou (during an 8-0 success against Lille in April 2005) in five minutes.
After his first achievement, the Brestois did it again three minutes later by winning his face-to-face with Yvon Mvogo with a dive ball. Before scoring his third goal by taking a low cross in the 29th minute. On the ground following contact with Isaak Touré shortly before half-time, the Malian quickly got up and converted a cross from Romain Del Castillo a few moments later.
Main player of the meeting, in a Francis-Le-Blé stadium on fire, Kamory Doumbia succeeded in everything during the first period. He is the first player to score a quadruple in a half since Edinson Cavani against Caen in September 2016 (6-0).
