Pedro hits first Barça hat-trick.





Pedro Rodríguez stole the show at Vallecas, rediscovering his Midas touch to turn his every contribution into gold. And in football that means goals. The 26-year-old grabbed a hat-trick thanks to a trio of assists from different players; Leo Messi laid on the opener, Cesc Fàbregas set him up for the second, and Neymar da Silva gave him the simplest of tasks to wrap up a magical evening from a personal point of view. This was the second treble of Pedro's career, with the other coming for Spain against Belarus. The pacy forward now has five 'La Liga' goals for the season, just behind Leo Messi at the top of the scoring charts.
