List of France national football team hat-tricks

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Just Fontaine, scorer of five hat-tricks for France.

Since France's first international association football match in 1904, there have been 26 occasions when a French player has scored three or more goals (a hat-trick) in a game. The first hat-trick was scored by Eugène Maës against Italy in 1912. The record for the most goals scored in an international by a French player is five, which has been achieved on two occasions: by Maës against Luxembourg in 1913, and by Thadée Cisowski against Belgium in 1956.[1]

Just Fontaine holds the record for the most hat-tricks scored by a French player, with five between 1953 and 1959.[2] Two of these came at the 1958 World Cup finals, when France finished in third place. In the 1984 European Championships, Michel Platini scored hat-tricks in consecutive first-round matches, against Belgium and Yugoslavia.[3] Kylian Mbappé became the second-ever player to score a hat-trick in a World Cup final when he did so in 2022 against Argentina. The last French player to score a hat-trick was Kylian Mbappé, who scored three times against Gibraltar in a UEFA Euro 2024 qualifying match.

France have conceded 41 hat-tricks in their history, 31 of which came before the Second World War. In the post-war period, the only player to have scored two hat-tricks against France is Pelé; the first of these occurred in the 1958 World Cup semi-finals. Pelé is also the only non-European player to have scored a hat-trick against France. The Danish forward Sophus Nielsen holds the record for the most goals scored against France in a match, with ten in a 17–1 win at the 1908 Olympic Games in London. England's Geoff Hurst scored the last hat-trick scored against France, in a friendly in 1969.
