UEL: Hat-trick hero Caleb Ekuban powers Trabzonspor to a 3-1 win over AEK Athens

Black stars forward Caleb Ekuban was in blistering form for his side scoring a hat-trick in the process to power them to a 3-1 win over Greece outfit AEK Athens in the first leg of the final qualifying round of the Uefa Europa league

Trabzonspor fought back from an early sit back in the game after going down in the 4th minute of the contest through Croatian forward Marko Livaja

Ekuban rose to the occasion and scored a hat-trick to seal an away victory for the Turkish top-flight side in Athens, Greece

The Ghanaian was replaced in the 90th minute mark of the contest

Trabzonspor will play host to the Greece outfit in the return leg of the encounter next week and hope to book a place in the group stages of the competition this season
