THE Ezekiel Ponce “burst out” by scoring more goals in one game than he had in the whole season with her AEK. The hat-trick in 5-0 over Atromitos in Peristeri it was for the Argentine essentially the first of his career, as he had so far only made one more appearance for Lille’s second team in the French fourth division on March 24, 2018 against Viry Chatillon.
In fact, the 26-year-old ace reached the five goals in six games against Atromitos, more than he has scored against any opponent in his career. Ponce had scored once in AEK’s two wins over Peristeriot (0-1 and 3-0) for the Cup quarter-finals in his first stint in the 2018/19 season.
Ponce, who reached 20 goals in the Stoiximan Super League with 16 in 2018/19 and 4 more this year, he became the first “Union” player to score a hat-trick in the league since 7 December 2019, when Nelson Oliveira he had succeeded in a 5-0 victory over Panioni in OAKA. The last to score a hat-trick away from home was Nikos Lymberopoulos, on November 9, 2003 and in the 7-2 over Akratitos in Ano Liosia. The record with four goals in an away match is held by George Petridis from 6-2 over Paneleussiniakou on December 16, 1961.
AEK had scored five goals away from home since 1-5 against Panserraikos on March 8, 2009, while their last away win with a five-goal margin was the aforementioned 7-2 over Akratitos. The “black and yellow” have the record for the biggest victory in the championship, with 8-0 over Aegaleos in Rizoupoli in 1961/62.
