Stan van den Buys

Stan van den Buijs (born 8 June 1957) is a Belgian retired football player, who is most notable (or notorious) for scoring a hat-trick of own goals (three own goals) in one match while playing for Germinal Ekeren against Anderlecht in the 1994–95 season of the Belgian Jupiler League (Anderlecht won 3-2).[1][2] However, a video from ActueelTV appears to show that while he scored two own goals the third was in fact put across the line by an attacker.
