Elijah Adebayo made Premier League history on Tuesday with an incredible performance that saw Luton Town defeat Brighton & Hove Albion 4-0.

Adebayo’s feat, marked by a hat trick, not only showcased his prowess but also sparked contemplation on the trajectory of his burgeoning career.

The 26-year-old striker’s exceptional night began in the opening minute when he opened the scoring with a precise header into the heart of the goalpost.

Adebayo’s second goal arrived just two minutes before halftime, and he capped off his hat trick in the 56th minute with a remarkable header from a corner kick, seizing the opportunity as Brighton’s defense faltered.

Adebayo’s triumphant performance not only marked a historic moment for Luton Town but also for himself, as he became the first player in 34 years to achieve a hat trick for the club in the English top-flight and the first to do so at Kenilworth Road since 1988.

The 4-0 victory is Luton Town’s most significant triumph since their return to the Premier League, with Adebayo’s three goals as the decisive factor.

The Nigerian striker has now amassed eight goals in the Premier League, playing a pivotal role in Luton Town’s bid to secure their top-flight status.
