What does a hat trick in Football mean?

Answer:
A hat trick is the accomplishment of a player scoring three goals in the same game (some definitions also require the goals to be consecutive). Its use to describe this achievement originates with cricket in England, when a player who took three wickets in a row was given a special hat to commemorate it, and is now used in virtually every sport.there is also 'The perfect hat trick'where a player scores with his left foot, right foot and a header,in any order
