Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang matches Ibrahimović's La Liga scoring record
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has set a significant La Liga milestone by scoring in each of his first five matches of the season. The 37-year-old striker, playing for newly promoted Deportivo La Coruña, became the first player to achieve this feat since Zlatan Ibrahimović did so with Barcelona in 2009.
Aubameyang secured his record-breaking fifth consecutive scoring match with a 78th-minute header during a 1-1 draw against Getafe. His scoring streak began against Elche and continued through matches against Málaga, Valencia, and Villarreal. In addition to his five goals, he has provided two assists during this period.
This performance marks a historic achievement for Deportivo La Coruña, as Aubameyang is the first player in the club's 119-year history to score in each of his first five appearances. The result maintains Deportivo's unbeaten streak at the start of the season.
