I'll kick this off with this unbelievable but true story, about the player who scored a hat-trick in the same game against three different goalies.
In West Ham's 8-1 home win against Newcastle United in April 1986, Alvin Martin scored three goals against three different goalkeepers—making him the only player to score his hat-trick in such a fashion.
The defender netted his first goal against Newcastle goalkeeper Martin Thomas, who was then replaced by Chris Hedworth due to injury. Martin scored against the substitute keeper, who was then replaced by Peter Beardsley toward the end of the match, whom he promptly scored against to complete his unusual but remarkable feat.
