Football at the Summer Olympics has been included in every Summer Olympic Games as a men's competition sport, except 1896 (the inaugural Games) and 1932 (in an attempt to promote the new FIFA World Cup tournament). Since the first official tournament in 1908 in England, 99 hat-tricks have been scored in over 1,000 matches of the 28 editions of the tournament. The first hat-trick was scored by Vilhelm Wolfhagen of the Denmark, playing against France B in 1908; the most recent was by Rafa Mir of Spain, playing against Ivory Coast on 31 July 2021. The only Olympic Football Tournaments not to have at least one hat-trick scored were the 1976, 2008, 2012 and 2024 editions. The record number of hat-tricks in a single Olympic Football Tournament is twelve, during the 1928 Olympics in the Netherlands, including three in the Bronze medal match as Italy defeated Egypt 11–3.[1]
