Deportivo La Coruña defeats Villarreal 3-2 led by Aubameyang
Deportivo La Coruña secured a 3-2 away victory against Villarreal in the fourth round of LaLiga, propelled by a standout performance from Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. The 37-year-old striker recorded one goal and two assists, becoming the first Deportivo player to score in each of his first four league matches, surpassing club legends such as Bebeto and Walter Pandiani.
The match featured significant drama, including an own goal by Adama Traoré that briefly gave Villarreal a 2-1 lead. Deportivo responded through goals from Zakaria Eddahchouri and Aubameyang to complete the comeback. This win moves Deportivo to fourth place in the standings with eight points, while Villarreal remains in 16th position with two points.
Following their return to the top flight, Deportivo has been active in the transfer market, investing approximately 25 million euros in ten new signings, including players like José María Giménez and Marc Casadó. The club is also reportedly exploring free agent options, such as Riyad Mahrez, to further strengthen their attacking lineup.
