Marseille striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has made history by becoming the Europa League’s all-time record goalscorer with his exceptional performance. In a thrilling match against Shakhtar Donetsk, Aubameyang secured his 31st goal in the Europa League on Thursday. Displaying his remarkable skills, he was played through on goal and effortlessly finished into the bottom corner, establishing a brand new record. Previously tied with Radamel Falcao at 30 goals, Aubameyang has now surpassed the former Manchester United star, solidifying his place in football history.
It’s worth noting that the record dates back to 2009, following the rebranding of the UEFA Cup. Despite this, Aubameyang shares the honor of being the all-time leading goalscorer in the UEFA Cup with Sweden’s iconic player, Henrik Larsson.
Aubameyang’s remarkable achievement is a result of his stellar performances for various clubs in the Europa League. Having scored 14 goals for Arsenal, eight for Borussia Dortmund, two for Barcelona, and now seven for Marseille, he has showcased his scoring prowess across different teams and leagues. His recent goal against Donetsk not only contributed to Marseille’s 3-1 victory on the night but also secured a 5-3 aggregate victory for the Ligue 1 club.
Looking ahead, Marseille is set to face Montpellier in a Ligue 1 clash on Sunday. Despite their European exploits, they currently occupy the ninth position in the league table. This upcoming match presents another opportunity for Aubameyang and his team to further showcase their talent and strive for success in domestic competitions. The journey of Aubameyang and Marseille continues, filled with moments of excitement and anticipation for the fans and followers of the beautiful game.~~
