Futbol üzrə Fransa milli komandasının və PSJ-nin təcrübəli hücumçusu Usman Dembele dünya çempionatları tarixinə düşüb.
Arena.az xəər verir ki, 29 yaşlı futbolçu DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin son turunda Norveçə qarşı keçirdikləri matçın ilk hissəsində het-trik edərək əlamətdar göstəriciyə imza atıb.
Beləliklə, Dembele dünya çempionatında bir oyunun ilk hissəsində üç qol vuran ilk futbolçu olub. Sonuncu dəfə buna 1994-cü ildə ABŞ-da keçirilmiş mundialda Rusiya millisinin sabiq hücumçusu Oleq Salenko nail olmuşdu.
Salenko həmin mundialın qrup mərhələsində Kamerunla qarşılaşmanın ilk yarısında üç dəfə fərqlənmişdi. Rusiya yığmasının 6:1 hesablı qələbəsi ilə başa çatmış həmin oyunda hücumçu ümumilikdə beş qol vurmuşdu.
Qeyd edək ki, Fransa millisinin Norveç üzərində 4:1 hesablı qələbə qazandığı görüşdə Usman Dembele het-triklə yadda qalıb.
The Paris Saint-Germain forward hit all three of his goals in the opening half an hour, and Desire Doue added his side’s fourth in this one-sided victory.

France were superb for much of the game, and Dembele in particular, with Les Bleus continuing to look like the major favourites for this World Cup, while Dembele may well be heading for a second Ballon d’Or in a row.
Here’s a look at our France player ratings from tonight’s big win over Norway…
France player ratings
Mike Maignan – 9/10 – Bailed out his defence on a few occasions, including with a fine penalty save in the second half.
Jules Kounde – 6/10 – Not the most convincing game from Jules Kounde or indeed most of the France defence as this heavily rotated Norway side had their moments throughout the game.
Dayot Upamecano – 7/10 – One of the stronger French defenders on the night, it was a typically strong and assured display from Bayern Munich’s Dayot Upamecano.
Theo Hernandez – 6/10 – Normally more of an attacking threat from left-back, we saw a slightly subdued performance from Theo Hernandez this evening.
Manu Kone – 7/10 – Not a guaranteed starter for France, but Manu Kone did himself no harm with an impressive performance tonight, albeit against an under-strength Norway side.
Desire Doue – 8/10 – One of many exciting talents in this Les Bleus attack, Desire Doue was a threat throughout the game and added his team’s fourth with a well-taken header.

? What a goal by Ousmane Dembele as he sealed his hat-trick for France against Norway!! ?? pic.twitter.com/u4BcJeZ8Bf
Ousmane Dembele – 10/10 – What a performance. What a player. Ousmane Dembele hit a hat-trick inside 32 minutes, and all three goals were of exceptional quality. If he carries on like this he’ll surely be leading France to the trophy.
Michael Olise – 6/10 – An uncharacteristically quiet game from Michael Olise, but admittedly not the most important one either.
Kylian Mbappe – 9/10 – No goals for Kylian Mbappe on this occasion, but two assists and a superb performance leading the line for France.
France forward Ousmane Dembele is on fire against Norway this evening, with the Paris Saint-Germain star scoring two superb solo goals as part of a first-half hat-trick.
Dembele, who won the Champions League with PSG for a second season in a row, must be on course for a second Ballon d’Or in a row as well, with this World Cup only likely to boost his credentials.

The 29-year-old scored 20 goals in 40 games in all competitions for PSG in 2025/26, and he’s now proving a star player for the French national team, who will be arguably the favourites to go all the way in this year’s World Cup.
If Dembele keeps scoring goals like this, it’s certainly hard to see who can stop Les Bleus from being crowned world champions, or indeed who can prevent Dembele being named the best player in the world again…
Ousmane Dembele’s superb brace for France against Norway
First Dembele zig-zagged his way through the Norway defence before a clinical finish with his right foot to make it 1-0 in the 6th minute…
Norway managed to pull one back to make the game interesting again, but it’s also worth noting that they’ve rested a lot of their best players, including Erling Haaland, for tonight’s game.
That will undoubtedly make things easier for Dembele and the rest of the France team, who are pretty much at full strength.
Still, take nothing away from the quality of Dembele, with the former Barcelona man continuing to show just how much of a game-changer he is on the biggest stage.
Even if Ligue 1 isn’t particularly competitive for PSG, Dembele scored eight goals in 13 games for his club in the Champions League this season, including in the final victory over Arsenal.
