Robert Earnshaw. He scored hat-tricks in all divisions in the football league with Cardiff City, in the Premiership with West Bromwich Albion, and for Wales (v Scotland) at international level.
The first World Cup hat trick was scored by Bert Patenaude - though under some recent controversy. In 2006, a goal which had previously been attributed to team-mate Tom Florie. The hat-trick was scored on July 19, 1930. Prior to this re-attribution, FIFA had acknowledged the first hat-trick as being scored by Argentine Guillermo Stábile - the first three of eight goals he scored for his country, including at least one goal in every game he played for the national team.
