Yannick Bolasie aiming for more goals at Crystal Palace
Sunday 12 April 2015 14:06, UK
Hat-trick hero Yannick Bolasie is confident there are more goals to come for him after writing himself into Crystal Palace's history books in the 4-1 win over Sunderland.
The 25-year-old became the first player to register a Premier League treble for the Eagles in the emphatic victory at the Stadium of Light which eased the club past the 40-point mark.
Bolasie had managed just one league goal all season before the trip to Wearside on Saturday, but is determined to add to his tally before the end of the campaign.
The winger told the club's website: "It's frightening, actually.
“I haven't scored as many goals as I've wanted to this season, hitting the crossbar, post, and today I have scored three in 10 minutes - how's that for football?
