Egyptian star Omar Marmoush finally scored his first goal for Manchester City against Newcastle United, but he didn’t stop there. He went on to score a historic hat-trick, outperforming Mohamed Salah by becoming the fastest Egyptian to achieve a hat-trick in the English Premier League.
In just 14 minutes, Marmoush scored three goals against Newcastle United during their Premier League clash at the Etihad Stadium. The Egyptian star stole the show against the Magpies, delivering a memorable performance.
Marmoush outperforms Salah in the Premier League
Marmoush needed only three matches to score a hat-trick in the Premier League, surpassing his compatriot Mohamed Salah. Salah had to wait 43 matches before scoring his first hat-trick in 2018 against Watford. Additionally, Salah took 77 minutes to complete his hat-trick against Wolverhampton.
But Omar, in his third Premier League match, settled things against Newcastle with clinical finishing. This exceptional start allowed him to surpass Salah in speed and add a new achievement to Egyptian football in European stadiums.
After surpassing Salah, Marmoush still has a long way to go to prove himself as a big star in the league. However, his fiery start gives him a strong push to become one of the most prominent new faces in English football. Everyone is now eagerly watching the next steps of the young Egyptian striker.
Omar Marmoush joined Manchester City last January from Eintracht Frankfurt for 75 million euros. His remarkable performances convinced Pep Guardiola to sign him ahead of other top European clubs during the summer transfer window.
In his first four matches with Manchester City, Marmoush failed to score or provide assists, facing a tough start with his new team. But the Egyptian striker bounced back strongly in the fifth match against Newcastle United, opening his Premier League goal account in spectacular fashion.
