Orban was on fire as KAA thrashed Cercle Brugge 4-0 away from home in a Belgian Jupiler playoff game on Saturday evening.

The 20-year-old netted a remarkable 16-minute hattrick in the encounter to take his tally to five goals in the last three matches.

Orban has now scored three hattricks for Gent since he joined the club in the winter transfer window.
