16-year-old Southampton wonderkid Tyler Dibling has gone viral after basically scoring the same goal three times against Newcastle.

On Monday night, Southampton's Under 23 outfit beat Newcastle 4-2 away St James' Park in a thrilling encounter.

Saints were leading 4-0 before Newcastle reduced the deficit with goals from Dylan Stephenson and Isaac Westendorf following Ramello Dejorn Mitchell's red card.

But it was well and truly the Dibling show. The youngster, wearing the No.10, scored a stunning first half-trick.

We've seen many players score 'perfect' hat-tricks over the years - that being a strike with the right foot, a finish with the left and a header.

Yet Dibling changed the game by scoring THREE identical goals in a 34 minute period.


He opened the scoring in the sixth minute, picking up the ball in midfield and drove towards goal before smashing in a low left-footed strike that beat Mark Gillespie.

Albert Einstein once said that "insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results" and Dibling decided to replicate his heroics another two times.

Again he was in possession in Newcastle's half and fired into the very same bottom corner after being given space on the edge of the area.

And then came the third, which followed the exact same template. Dibling broke with the ball, shaped to shoot and unleashed another emphatic low effort for a breathtaking hat-trick.

Arjen Robben regularly scored the same goal on repeat for pretty much his whole career but to do it in the same game? The thirst time was so nice, he had to do it thrice.

Dibling literally had everyone thinking that they were watching two replays of his first goal:

Dibling made his Premier League 2 debut for Southampton in January of this year, playing 90 minutes and registering an assist.

He only recently turned 16 and would appear to have a bright future ahead.
