History made
“Historic” Lookman is ready to celebrate
Ademola Lookman brutally shattered Bayer Leverkusen's dreams of a treble in the Europa League final. With his three goals, the Atalanta Bergamo attacker was not only able to celebrate his club's first title, but also his own historic achievement.
Lookman wrote himself into the Europa League history books with his treble in the final against Leverkusen. The man from Nigeria is not only the first African footballer to score more than one goal in the final, but also the first footballer ever to score three goals in a Europa League final.
"I am so happy. We're celebrating properly today," said Lookman, not really able to realize the historic evening himself. He then set off with his team-mates to collect Atalanta Bergamo's first European title.
The former Leipzig striker put his team ahead after just eleven minutes. After 26 minutes, he completed his brace. He finally scored the historic third goal in the 75th minute. In doing so, he put an end to Leverkusen's last hopes.
