Ghanaian forward Kelvin Boateng was outstanding for First Vienna FC in their league match against SK Rapid Vienna Amateur in the Austrian 2. Liga.

The 24-year-old bagged a hat-trick after scoring all the goals in First Vienna's 3-1 victory at the Hohe Warte Stadium on Friday evening.

The home side was up and running as early as the first minute when Boateng put them ahead after connecting with a pass from Christoph Monschein.

Boateng doubled the advantage for First Vienna a few minutes later after he was set up by defender Jurgen Bauer.

With five minutes remaining in the first half, Boateng scored again to seal his hat-trick, increasing the tally for First Vienna following an assist from David Ungar.

Defender Dominic Vincze pulled one back for Rapid in the 85th minute after Tobias Hedl had missed a penalty kick in the first half.

Boateng has now scored four goals after six appearances in the Austrian second-tier league since the beginning of the 2024-25 campaign.
