As he said in an interview after the game against NK Čelić, during the match he lost track how many goals he scored.

“I didn’t even know how many I scored. There were others who counted. Mine was to score goals.”



He scored the first goal in the third minute of the game, and continued until 86th minute, when he scored the 11th.

“It was a pleasure to play this game. I did it with the help of my teammates”, said Salkić, who added that their team play wasn’t focused to help him broke the record, but everything went kind of spontaneous.

“It just started, I started scoring goals, one after another and another one, and yet another…,” Salkić explains.

“I enjoy this moment at the end of my career,” said this 33-year old football veteran.

His team competes in Druga liga “Sjever” FBiH, which is a third level football league in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Even though he made history, he did it in front of almost empty stadium, as only 80 fans watched the game.

Panagiotis Pontikos and Stephan Staniso share the spot in the Guinness Book of World Records with the most number of goals scored by a single player in a game.

Olympos Xylofagou striker Panagiotis Pontikos banged in 16 goals against SEK Ayios Athanasios FC to help his side win 24-3 in Cypriot third division game on May 7, 2007.

Stephan Staniso also scored 16 times for his side Racing Club in a French Cup match against Aubry Asturies in December 1942.

In international football, the record for the most goals scored by a single player in a game is held by Australian Archie Thompson, who scored a whopping 13 goals in a 2002 World Cup qualifier against American Samoa on April 11, 2001. The Socceroos won 31-0 (the score was originally reported as 32-0 as even the scorekeepers lost count).
