After scoring a scorcher midweek in the UEFA Cup, Kewell backed it up with yet another this weekend.

Team-mate Milan Baros scored a double as Gala rolled over Kocaelispor 4-1 with Shabani Nonda also on target in the Turkish Superlig.

Harry's strike is just the latest chapter in an amazing turnaround in fortunes for the Sydney-born hero.

He was released by Liverpool at the end of last season after a dismal iknjury-plagued five years at the Premier League club.

When he left, Kewell said he only wanted to prove boss Rafa Benitez wrong for letting him go.

With the new season just begun and Kewell already four goals up, Harry appears to be proving his point.

Meanwhile his Socceroo team-mate Tim Cahill has also battled back from long term injuries in impressive style.

He made a surprise return to Everton's starting line-up after months out the game with a broken foot.

He scored on his return debut - and has now repeated the feat this weekend, leading a spirited Merseyside comeback against Hull City after the Toffees went 2-0 behind.

Cahill opened the scoring late in the second half with a controversial goal that sparked debate about whether it crossed the line, but five minutes later the game was tied up at 2-2.

Elsewhere Socceroo Michael Beauchamp - wrongly sent off in the Champions League game against Celtic midweek - also scored...but against his own team.

He netted an own goal in AaB's league tie against Copenhagen, helping his side to a 3-0 loss.
