Meet Joel Pohjanpalo. He is a Finnish international who is a striker for Bayer Leverkusen. I saw him come on as a substitute in the 72nd minute in this weekend's game against Hamburg. All he did was score a hat trick [in 11 minutes], with two of those goals coming in stoppage time. The Finland international, who has returned to Leverkusen after two years on loan at Fortuna Dusseldorf, headed in Julian Brandt’s cross in the 79th minute to equalize. The 21-year-old then put Leverkusen ahead with a clinical finish in the 90th minute and struck again in stoppage time as they picked up their first points of the season.
