RE: League Cup vs West Ham i think Efan Ekoku Andy Cole Van Nistelroy Eric Cantona was the first player to score a hat-trick in the Premier League, when Leeds Utd beat Tottenham 5-0 on August 15 1992. Efan Ekoku of Norwich City was the first player to score four goals in one Premier League match. Andy Cole was the first player to score five goals in a Premiership match, for Manchester United vs. Ipswich in the 1994/95 season. The final score was 9-0, which is also a Premiership record for the biggest victory/defeat. Brian Deane scored the first ever Premiership goal, for Sheffield United vs. Manchester United on the opening day of the 1992/93 season. Les Ferdinand scored the Premiership's 10,000th goal in Tottenham's 4-0 win over Fulham in December 2001. Manchester United's Ruud Van Nistlerooy holds the record for scoring in the most consecutive games. He scored in eight in a row during the 2001/02 season beating Mark Stein's record of seven set in the 1993/94 season
