Andre Silva, making his La Liga debut, scored a hat-trick for Sevilla as they thrashed Rayo Vallecano 4-1. That took him past Morales, Leo Messi and Alex Gallar who have each started the season with two goals.
Curiously Silva hit two all season in Serie A last term and has already bettered that in Spain.
The Portuguese forward couldn't have started better after his loan from AC Milan with an option to buy. The 22 year old started at Vallecas and hit three, netting at the near post, after a corner and then finding the net from Franco Vazquez's ball with his goal disallowed and then re-allowed with the help of VAR.
