ToggleSantiago Gimenez made the difference for Feyenoord in Saturday's league trip to Excelsior as he scored three times to help the reigning Eredivisie champions to a 4-2 win.
The striker scored once before the break to give his side an early lead, before adding two more to his tally in the second half to seal the full three points.

The striker went goalless in his last three Eredivisie matches, including a missed penalty in the narrow win over RKC before the international break, but he never panicked during his short goal drought.
"I felt really good today. I made some mistakes recently with the missed penalty," Gimenez told ESPN.
"But I know this happens, sometimes you go without goals for a while. You can't always score."
Gimenez has been in superb form this campaign and has already netted 16 times in 14 Eredivisie appearances to go top of the Eredivisie top scorer table.
This weekend's hat-trick was the 22-year-old's second treble of the 2023-24 season, previously taking home the match ball after a 4-0 win over arch-rivals Ajax.
The prolific attacker has already surpassed last term's Eredivisie tally following his latest goalscoring exploits. He netted 15 times in 32 league outings in 2022-23.
