Super Falcons defender Ashleigh Plumptre netted a hat-trick as Al-Ittihad thrashed Al-Ahly 6-2 in a Saudi  Women’s Premier League clash on Friday night.

It was Plumptre’s second hat-trick for Al-Ittihad since her arrival at the club in the summer.

It would be recalled that she scored a hat-trick on matchday one against Eastern Flames FC in October.

The centre-back scored Al Ittihad’s second goal against Al-Ahly in the  29th minute.

In first half added time, Plumptre made it 4-0. She collected a pass in the midfield charged forward and unleashed a long range left-foot volley past the keeper.

Plumptre nodded home the fifth goal late in the game.

She has now scored six goals in six league outings this season.
