Besart Berisha scored a record five A-League hat-tricks, for Brisbane Roar and Melbourne Victory.

The A-League is the top and only professional soccer league in Australia. Since its inaugural season, 2005–06, more than forty players have scored hat-tricks in A-League matches, by scoring three goals in one game. In addition, five players have scored more than three goals in a match. The first hat-trick was scored by Ante Milicic for Newcastle Jets in a win over New Zealand Knights.[1] In the 2007 A-League Grand Final, Archie Thompson scored five goals in Melbourne Victory's win over Adelaide United.[2]

On one occasion, two hat-tricks have been scored in a single match, when Marcos Flores and Sergio van Dijk both scored three goals for Adelaide United against North Queensland Fury.[3] Shane Smeltz and Bobô are the only players to have scored hat-tricks in consecutive matches.[4] Henrique is currently the only player to have scored a hat-trick after coming on as a substitute.[5] Besart Berisha holds the record for the fastest ever A-League hat-trick, scoring three goals in six minutes for Brisbane Roar against Adelaide United.[6]

Berisha has scored the most hat-tricks, with five. Following him are Smeltz with four, Jamie Maclaren with three and Van Dijk, Nathan Burns, Thompson, and Andy Keogh with two hat-tricks each.[7]
