Maltese club Kirkop United cruised to an 8 - 1 win over Ta&rsquo; Xbiex SC in the Third Division on Sunday, with unheralded Nigerian attacker Ayodeji Jotham Adeniran notching up a hat - trick.<br /><br />Remarkably, the three goals netted by Adeniran were scored in a space of eight minutes, between the 67th and 75th minute.<br /><br />And that was after joining the fray in the second half, as replacement for Vladimir Klikic, who bagged a brace before he left the pitch.<br /><br />After the opening round in the division, Kirkop United top the table ahead of Qrendi, Mtarfa, Santa Lucia, Luqa SA and Marsaskala due to their superior goal difference.<br /><br />They next face Mgarr United at the Sirens Stadium on Saturday, September 20, starting from 1600 hours local time.
