La Liga: Aubameyang scored his 5th goal in his past three Barcelona games as they beat Athletic Bilbao

By Aman Shukla

Things are turning out well for Barcelona again and, thanks to Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, scoring is no longer a problem for the Catalan club.

Aubameyang scored his fifth goal in three games as Barcelona kept momentum with a reassuring 4-0 victory over Athletic Bilbao in the Spanish league on Sunday.

Ousmane Dembele, Luuk de Jong and Memphis Depay also scored for Barcelona, which was coming off a major win against Napoli in the Europa League. Barcelona has won three in a row in all competitions scoring four goals each time – and is back in fourth spot in the Spanish league in the final Champions League spot.

“We’ve been doing a good job,” Xavi said. “The sensations are getting better and better. The team has been practising very well and now the results are showing.”

Aubameyang had scored in the 4-2 win against Napoli on Thursday and was coming off a hat trick in the 4-1 victory against Valencia in the league last week. The 32-year-old striker was signed from Arsenal in the last minute of the transfer window last month.
