Sam Cosgrove treble helps Aberdeen to impressive victory

Sam Cosgrove scored a hat-trick as Aberdeen sealed their place in the third qualifying round of the Europa League with a 5-0 win over Georgian side Chikhura Sachkhere.

The Dons striker took his tally to six goals in four games, helping to secure a 6-1 aggregate victory and setting up a clash with Croatian side HNK Rijeka.

Another good move saw the striker dive to meet Lewis Ferguson’s superb first-time cross and head the ball past the helpless Hamzic.

FourFourTwo was launched in 1994 on the back of a World Cup that England hadn’t even qualified for. It was an act of madness… but it somehow worked out. Our mission is to offer our intelligent, international audience access to the game’s biggest names, insightful analysis... and a bit of a giggle. We unashamedly love this game and we hope that our coverage reflects that.
