Alhassan Yusuf Scores MLS Hat-Trick as Super Eagles Selection Debate Grows

Nigerian midfielder Alhassan Yusuf scored a hat-trick in New England Revolution’s 3-0 win over D.C. United in the MLS. Yusuf struck in the 23rd, 45th and 66th minutes, with all three goals assisted by Jack Harrison. It was Yusuf’s first MLS hat-trick and New England Revolution’s first three-goal performance by a player in a league match since 2017. The display will renew discussion over Yusuf’s place in the Super Eagles midfield.
