Tallman i launch my investigation and i found out that you did indeed got number 7 right. Number 12 is going to the inquiry. Will report the verdict in a while

Got the verdict the answer for 12 is all above and you got it wrong

We know he both hat tricks were on the same day
They were both against teams that was making thier first world cup debut ( Greece and Jamaica)
His Third Goal came from the penalty spot

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/soccer/world/events/1998/worldcup/news/1998/06/21/argentina_jamaica/

Can find a source where i found the question but i guess you could take my word that the third was a penalty aginst greece  ;D
