Frenchman Alassane Pléa was the man of the match on Tuesday in Kiev, with a hat-trick and an assist in Mönchengladbach's 6-0 victory over Shakhtar Donetsk in the Champions League.
The 27-year-old striker opened the counter for his team in the 8th minute of a lightning recovery of the right (1-0).
He doubled his bet with a superb shot from the skylight in the 26th minute (3-0), and tripled it in the 78th (6-0), served well in the back of the defense at the limit of the out- play by fellow international hopeful Marcus Thuram, who weighed heavily on the Ukrainian defense all evening.

Meanwhile, Pléa had served Lars Stindl for the 5th goal (65th).
Borussia, who led 2-0 against Real Madrid last week until the 87th minute, before conceding two goals in the final minutes, find themselves provisionally alone at the top of Group B with 5 points, ahead of Donetsk and Real Madrid (4 pts).
Above all, Pléa makes people talk about him at the right time, while DD must give his list for the November games on Thursday, and there is indeed a place to scratch in attack.
