Danish dynamite in Västerås - hat trick by Ladefoged

Five goals in four games. Talk about an Allsvenskan success for Dane Mikkel Ladefoged. But his hat-trick wasn't enough to beat Häcken. The match ended 3–3.

Ladefoged's goalscoring is one of the main reasons newcomer Västerås SK has done so well in the top league so far.

Those who followed the Dane in the Super League last season already saw a player who delivered. In 15 games after his transfer from Esbjerg, he scored ten goals.

Ladefoged, 22, gave his team a 1-0 lead with a header after just nine minutes. Jeremy Agbonifo immediately equalized for Häcken and it looked likely to be a draw at halftime.

Then the Dane turned past Filip Helander, the center back with several international caps, and placed the ball in the far corner to make it 2-1.

It's an okay goal, Ladefoged tells TV4.

The hat-trick was completed in the 58th minute, but Helander got revenge and made it 3–3.
