This is a list of all hat-tricks scored during FIFA Confederations Cups; that is, the occasions when a footballer scored three or more goals in a single football FIFA Confederations Cup finals match. Scoring a hat-trick in a FIFA Confederations Cup was a relatively rare event: only 9 hat-tricks were scored in 108 matches in the 8 editions of the FIFA Confederations Cup tournament. As FIFA is the governing body of football, official hat-tricks are only noted when FIFA recognises that at least three goals were scored by one player in one match.

Notable hat-tricks

  • Spain's Fernando Torres became the first player to score hat tricks at two different FIFA Confederations Cups. He completed his first hat trick against New Zealand in 2009, while repeating that same feat in 2013 against Tahiti.
  • Ronaldo and Romário both of Brazil are only players to score hat-tricks in the final match in 1997 against Australia in 6–0 victory.
  • There have been two occasions when two hat-tricks have been scored in the same match : when Brazil defeated Australia 6–0 in the final match of 1997, Ronaldo and Romário both of Brazil, scored three goals each; and when Spain defeated Tahiti 10–0 in 2013, Torres scored 4 goals and Villa scored 3 goals for Spain.
  • Brazil and Spain scored the most hat-tricks with 3 each.
  • Tahiti hold the record of conceding the most hat-tricks with 4, also conceding at least one in every match they've played in at the tournament.
