Chelsea's Nicolas Jackson channeled his inner Cristiano Ronaldo after scoring a 20-minute hat-trick against Tottenham.

Mauricio Pochettino's side finally managed to break through the Spurs defence after a wild contest to take home a 4-1 victory and hand Ange Postecoglou his first Premier League defeat of the season.

Jackson scored in the 75th, 94th and 97th minutes with two-tap ins and a rounding of the goalkeeper before doing the celebrations of both Marcus Rashford with a finger to the temple and Ronaldo's SIUUU.
