Law, at his predatory best, was on fire. The referee, Ken Tuck, had allowed 69 minutes of play by which time Law had incredibly scored six goals as City led 6-2. But the referee decided enough was enough and abandoned the match. How the young City striker must have felt is not hard to guess, with all of his goals immediately scratched from the record books.
“It’s not every day that you score six goals,” recalled Law. “I never did it again - the most I managed in a game that counted was four, which I got a couple of times.
The game was replayed four days later, and Law was again on the score-sheet – and this one counted – but Luton went on to win 3-1 and dump City out of the FA Cup. In essence, Law had scored seven goals against Luton and still ended up on the losing team.

The current record for most goals in one Premier League match is jointly held by Andy Cole, Alan Shearer, Jermain Defoe, Dimitar Berbatov and Sergio Aguero - who all scored five goals in one game. Thierry Henry has backed Haaland to break the record by scoring six in a game. I think in his time at Man City he will have a game with six goals, he will. With the amount of chances that Man City does create.

Only five players have ever scored as many as five goals in a single Premier League game.
Andrew Cole did that in March 1995.
Manchester United won over Ipswich Town that day.
Alan Shearer, Jermain Defoe, Dimitar Berbatov, and Sergio Agüero also scored five goals in a single Premier League game.

An inspired Denis Law performance saw City race to a 6-2 lead against Luton early on in the second half, with the centre forward netting all six goals.
With the heavens having opened, the referee called time on the day’s play after just 69 minutes, because the rain was too torrential for the players to continue.
Instead, the fixture was ordered to be replayed, meaning the double hat-trick haul Law had bagged was wiped from the archives.

That day I scored goals in every way possible: with my right foot, my left foot, with my head – I might even have got one with my belly! We knew they were beatable opponents, but we didn't really know what to expect. It was undoubtedly my night. We set the record for goals scored by a team in a European competition and also the highest number of goals scored by a single player – me, with six! It was magnificent!
