Atalanta officially won the 2023/2024 Europa League after a convincing 3-0 win over Leverkusen in the final match that took place early on May 23. Striker Lookman scored a hat-trick for Atalanta in the 12th, 26th and 75th minutes.
With a hat-trick against the German representative, the Nigerian striker made history in the tournament. Specifically, Lookman is the first African player to score 3 goals in a Europa League final (precursor of the UEFA Cup).
Lookman's hat-trick for Atalanta was the sixth hat-trick scored in a European Cup final. It was also the first hat-trick since Jupp Heynckes scored three for Borussia Monchengladbach in the 1975 UEFA Cup.
This season, Lookman has been very impressive for Atalanta. The Nigerian striker has contributed 15 goals and 8 assists after 43 appearances in all competitions, making a great contribution to Atalanta's improvement in Serie A and winning the 2023/2024 Europa League.
The 2023/2024 Europa League title is Atalanta's first European Cup title in 116 years of establishment. Atalanta also became the first Italian team to win the championship in this arena since Parma won the title in the 1999 season.
