UECL: KAA Gent manager praises Gift Orban after scoring hat-trick

Hein Vanhaezebrouck, the manager of KAA Gent, has heaped praise upon Gift Orban for his outstanding performance during the UEFA Europa Conference League match against Polish side Pogon Szczecin on Wednesday night.

The 21-year-old prodigy etched his name into the annals of football history with an astonishing hat-trick that paved the way for a resounding 5-0 victory on the field.

Orban’s meteoric rise has captured the hearts of fans as he seamlessly transitioned from his standout campaign last season to his current impressive form. Demonstrating an uncanny ability to find the back of the net, the young forward has already notched up four goals for the Buffalos in the early stages of this season.

Amidst the jubilation following the triumph against Pogon Szczecin, Vanhaezebrouck couldn’t help but single out Orban for his virtuosic display, offering words that resonate with admiration and respect.

“He’s not just a player, he’s a phenomenon – and he’s poised to remain a phenomenon. I’ve spoken these words five times before, and I’ll continue to do so without hesitation,” Vanhaezebrouck emphatically conveyed to reporters in the aftermath of the exhilarating game.

“As time moves forward, even if his presence isn’t on our pitch, his legacy as a phenomenon will endure. At 21, he’s still a young talent blossoming with potential.”

Addressing the awe-inspiring feat of Orban’s hat-trick, Vanhaezebrouck offered an insightful perspective. “His hat-trick? While it’s a testament to his greatness, it’s becoming routine for a player of his exceptional caliber, isn’t it?”
