Top 5: Did you know about these fascinating Premier League records?

Most goals in one half: Jermain Defoe

England international striker Jermain Defoe has scored the most goals in one half of a Premier League match, scoring five against Wigan Athletic back in November 2009.

The 35-year-old, who now stars for AFC Bournemouth in the top-flight, scored in the 51st, 54th, 58th, 69th and 87th minute during Tottenham’s 9-1 thrashing of The Latics at White Hart Lane.

Shame he didn’t score in the first-half, too!
