Romelu Lukaku has expressed his delight after scoring a match-winning hat-trick for Everton last night against BSC Young Boys.
Though the Swiss club took the lead in the tenth minute, a treble from Lukaku and another goal from Seamus Coleman helped the Toffees to register a resounding 4-1 win at the Stade de Suisse in Bern.
With a resounding performance away from home, Everton will be confident of seeing off the challenge from the Swiss side at Goodison Park next Thursday to qualify for the next round of the Europa League.
Lukaku, who faced some criticism this season for his performances after his big money move to Everton in the summer, was delighted with the hat-trick and is hoping for more such nights in his career.
However, the forward was quick to praise his team-mates and said that the performance would not have been possible without their support.
