Former Chelsea striker Timo Werner netted a first-half hat-trick for RB Leipzig last night.

Just as his old club were losing at Southampton, Werner was hitting a treble in RBL's German Cup defeat of Teutonia Ottensen.

RBL would go onto win 8-0 on Tuesday night.

Andre Silva, Emil Forsberg, Christopher Nkunku and Dani Olmo also netted in the first-round German Cup clash.

But it was Werner who walked off with the match ball, with the ace now on four goals in as many games since his Leipzig return.

Werner - who also bagged an assist on Tuesday night - rejoined the Bundesliga giants from Chelsea over the summer for £25million.
