Gift Orban was the hero for KAA Gent, Sunday, in the Jupiler Pro League match against Zulte Waregem.
Orban scored four in Gent’s 6-2 win at the Regenboogstadion, and all his goals in thirty minutes, closing the game in a one-man show.
The Nigerian forward has been in impressive form since his debut for his club.
He joined from second.division Norwegian club Stabæk in January and has now scored 9goals (7 league goal) in his first 8 appearances in Belgium.
The 20 year-old netted in the 53rd, 68th, 75th and 83rd minutes of the game, the first being a fine strike from inside the box.
His second a brilliant free-kick, a third being a simple tap-in and the final one bringing down the roof of the stadium.
KAA Gent moved to 5th in the standings, but are with touching distance of a Championship playoff spot with five games left of the regular season.
