Rossi had netted just one goal in 15 league appearances for Celta in 2016-17 ahead of Monday's clash with Las Palmas.
Per Squawka, the former Villarreal star's treble was very unexpected:
It came at an excellent time for Celta manager Eduardo Berizzo, with his side hitting some fine form going into the latter stages of the season—they have now won three on the bounce in all competitions.
Rossi opened the scoring after 12 minutes, taking fine advantage of a mistake on the ball from Las Palmas defender Bigas.
He doubled the hosts' lead in the 36th minute as he turned home after Iago Aspas' attempt could only be pushed away by goalkeeper Raul Lizoain.
Just before the hour, Rossi completed his treble as he beat Lizoain with a low effort. Per Opta, he had not netted more than one goal in a single game in La Liga for more than six years:
Nine minutes from time, Bigas netted a bicycle kick from six yards out to claw a goal back for Las Palmas.
However, Celta saw out a comfortable victory in the end, and Rossi is well set to enjoy a fine close to the 2016-17 campaign.
