Tottenham Hotspur
A couple of firsts on the south coast back in October, 2015. This was our first league encounter against AFC Bournemouth following their promotion into the Premier League, and an encounter marked by Harry Kane's first away hat-trick for the Club.
Much like our only previous meeting to that date - a surprise 3-1 defeat in the FA Cup back in 1957 - things didn't start well. Indeed, we were 1-0 down inside a minute at the Vitality thanks to Matt Ritchie's low strike.
We dominated from there. Harry scored the first of his trio from the penalty spot after being upended by Arthur Boruc and we were soon 3-1 up through Mousa Dembele and Erik Lamela. Harry completed his third hat-trick in a Spurs shirt and first on the road with two close-range finishes in the second half.
That took his Spurs tally to 40 - he's now on 183, third in our all-time list, with 11 hat-tricks to his name.
