Shay Given concedes Premier League’s quickest ever hat-trick in Aston Villa horror show

Stranded, helpless, buried. Not Shay's finest three minute-spell.

Saido Mane has given Aston Villa relegation quivers all over again after recording the Premier League's quickest ever hat-trick. The Southampton forward put his side 3-0 ahead against a hapless Villa side at St Mary's. Mane swept in his first, tapped in another - following defence shenanigans - and had Shay Given flailing at fresh air for his third. From 0-0 to 3-0, the hat-trick was recorded in 2 minutes and 40 seconds. It beats Robbie Fowler's 4 minute 33 second hat-trick for Liverpool, against Arsenal. What did the man Jason McAteer calls 'God' make of it all?

Getting a lot of messages here... What's happened?

On 26 minutes, Given made a save to stop Mane getting his fourth but Irish striker Shane Long lapped up the rebound. Up in the stands, Dr Barry Gale was loving it: https://twitter.com/jordansibley/status/599545994020331520 Tim Sherwood, needless to say, was livid.
