The on-loan Liverpool attacker began his treble in the 4-0 victory at Birmingham City with a brilliantly improvised finish from outside the box after cutting out a pass with the opposition goalkeeper stranded.
Wilson then converted two free-kicks in either half of the Championship encounter, the first delivered low into the bottom corner before a second whipped high into the roof of the net to complete his haul.
“Going into the game, a lot of people were saying it was a bit of a dead rubber, but we didn’t see it as that,” said the Wales international.
