Maja, at 25 years old, made an impressive mark in West Bromwich Albion's opening league match of the season by becoming the first player from the club in 91 years to achieve a hat-trick. This notable accomplishment had not been seen since Alf Bentley's performance in 1913.
The game began with Queens Park Rangers taking the lead through a goal from Lucas Andersen, putting West Brom at a disadvantage. However, Maja quickly turned the tide in favor of his team. West Bromwich Albion responded effectively with new acquisition Torbjorn Heggem delivering a precise cross into the box. Maja rose to meet the ball with a well-placed header, equalizing the score in the 24th minute.
The second half saw Maja continuing his stellar performance as he scored his second goal shortly after the break. This time, he capitalized on another assist from Tom Fellows, heading the ball into the net. Maja’s hat-trick was completed in the 65th minute with a spectacular acrobatic volley, also set up by Fellows. His decisive performance ensured a dramatic 3-1 comeback victory for West Bromwich Albion, marking a memorable start to their season.
