Arsenal forward Kido Taylor-Hart got off the mark for new club Derby County on Wednesday night.
Taylor-Hart bagged a hat-trick in a thrilling win at National League North side Alfreton Town as the Rams fought back from 5-2 down with three minutes to go to take the Derbyshire Senior Cup tie to penalties. The 20 year-old scored the game's opener, netting from 25 yards, but Alfreton rallied and recovered from 2-0 down to lead 3-2 and goals from Ahmed Salam and Tom Denton looked to have put the game beyond all doubt.
However, Taylor-Hart was at the centre of the Rams' revival and Alfreton goalkeeper Jake Askew denied him with a fine save. Taylor-Hart, though, was not to be denied again and scored a brilliant third for the Rams before slamming home his hat-trick goal beyond Askew and into the bottom left-hand corner of the net.
