Arsenal forward Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was in superb form as he bagged a brace in the North London derby yesterday afternoon.
After scoring two against Tottenham, the Gabon international now tops the Premier League goalscoring charts with ten goals.
The Gunners’ official Twitter account also mentioned it is the first time in over a decade that a striker has hit ten goals in a row from just ten shots on target.
Supporters praised Aubameyang for his supreme accuracy in front of goal:

In addition to Aubameyang, credit must also go to manager Unai Emery who masterminded the second half turnaround. After Arsenal went into the break 2-1 down, the Gunners boss made two attacking substitutions at half-time.
Aaron Ramsey came on to provide two assists, while Alexandre Lacazette scored to make it 3-2 fifteen minutes from time.
Aubameyang also turned provider for Arsenal’s fourth, sending Lucas Torreira away on goal for the Uruguayan to slot home past Spurs keeper Hugo Lloris.
