Ghanaian forward Ibrahim Osman starred in AZ Alkmaar's 9-1 thumping of Heerenveen in the Dutch Eredivisie after contributing three goals in the thrilling encounter.
The former Ghana U17 winger is enjoying a blistering start to the new season, making his fifth league appearance on Saturday against HJeerenveen.
Osman served quadruple scorer Troy Parrott two of his goals in a devastating home display by the former Dutch champions. The Ghanaian forward then registered his name on the scoresheet with a 72nd minute strike.
Sven Mijnans opened the scoring for the host after just four minutes but Heerenveen responded through Luuk Brouwers 15 minutes later.
Parrot then went on rampage, scoring four goals in 33 minutes before Sadiq, Mexx Meerdink, Kristijan Belic and Zico Buurmeester sealed victory for AZ Alkmaar.
Sadiq was replaced by Dutch-born Ghanaian Jayden Addai with 15 minutes remaining.
Meanwhile, Dutch-Ghanaian goalkeeper Rome-Jayden Owusu-Oduro lasted the entire duration for AZ.
