NOW TRY Quiz! Can you name every Champions League hat-trick scorer since 2010?

Three, according to the song, is the magic number. And so often, the number three is a fabled tally in football, whether we're talking frontlines, midfield trios or Jose Mourinho holding up three fingers to taunt his opposition.

We've found 10 categories of record-holders, incidences or even famous triumvirates. We've listed out 40 footballers, some relatively modern, some from yesteryear – meaning that there are 10 decoy answers. 

All we want you to do is match the player to the category. You can do so in any order. Naturally, you only get three guesses per category.

The question is, do you know your MSN from your 2003 Ballon d'Or finalists?
