A Hattrick of Penalties?!

Ronaldo scored three times from the penalty spot last night in the Brazil-Argentina World Cup qualifier.... all from penalties earned from fouls on him. This is one for the statistics geeks - has this ever happened before?

For some reason this story has reminded me of when that guy Martin Palermo MISSED 3 penalties in a game for Argentina! Anyone remember that?
