Brighton coach Roberto De Zerbi praised the performance of the team's striker Evan Ferguson after scoring a hat-trick in the English Championship match against Newcastle (3-1).
"I'm happy for him, and it's not just about the goals. I was pleased with his performance, especially in the first half. He was in the right positions. "Newcastle defended in a 4-4-1 formation and there was space for him. He understands when there is space. He is working on improving his skills.
He can become a great, great player. He can become one of the best, the best scorer in Europe. He was born in 2004, he is 18. I don't know how many young players score as much as he does," Sky Sports quoted De Zerbi as saying.
