Aubameyang's run continues

The Gabon striker finds the net again and extends his excellent scoring record in the Europa League

Another goal from Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. After his hat trick against Valencia in La Liga, this time the striker scored in the Diego Armando Maradona stadium in the comprehensive 4-2 win over Napoli to continue his excellent statistics in the UEFA Europa League. 

The Gabon international came to Barça in the January transfer window and has hit the ground running with four goals in his last two matches. His strike against Napoli extends his record in the competition to 23 goals in 45 matches, a goal more than every other game.

After a first half in which Aubamenyang went close to finding the net, he finally did so in the second by finishing beautifully from the edge of the box after Frenkie de Jong had dummied Adama's cross. 

Aubameyang made his debut in the Europa League in the 2009/10 season for Lille. The striker, however, opened his account in the competition as a Borussia Dortmund player in the 2015/16 season, scoring eight times in 10 matches. 

At Arsenal he added 14 more goals in 26 matches and now he has the chance to continue his run in the last 16 with FC Barcelona.
