Liverpool FC: On this day

Robbie Fowler scoring his second goal against Arsenal at Anfield.

On this day in 1994, Robbie Fowler scored the fastest-ever Premier League hat-trick at the time, coming in at four minutes and 33 seconds in a 3-0 win over Arsenal.

Exactly five years later, God also found the net against the Gunners with a thunderous strike at Anfield in a 2-0 victory.

In fact, it is Liverpool legend Sadio Mane who now holds the record for the quickest Premier League hat-trick, netting a treble in just two minutes and 56 seconds for Southampton against Aston Villa in 2015.

That’s surely not going to be beaten!?
