MOUSSA DEMBELE was at his deadly best last night as he fired a 12-minute hat-trick for France Under-21s.

The Celtic striker, right, helped dismantle Slovenia in Domzale as the French came from behind to win the Euro 2019 Group Nine qualifier 3-1.

Milan Tucic gave the home side a 21st-minute lead but Dembele converted a penalty in 34 minutes and followed that with a close-range volley and a superb curling effort from outside the box before half-time.

The win maintained France’s 100 per cent record in the group as they went top with four wins out of four.
