LONDON (AP) - Jermain Defoe scored five goals, including a seven-minute hat trick, to match a Premier League record in powering Tottenham to a 9-1 rout of Wigan on Sunday.
Defoe equaled the mark set by Newcastle's Alan Shearer in 1999 and Manchester United's Andy Cole in 1995.
"It did cross my mind whether I was going to get another (hat trick)," Defoe said. "I had another good chance but you can't complain getting five goals."
