Marseille striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is getting some treatment.

He has scored 29 goals in 53 Europa League appearances. Since 2009-10, only Radamel Falcao (30 in 31 games) has more goals in the competition.

All five of his goals in this season’s competition have come against Ajax.

And he's fine.

The trademark celebration from the Ghanaian.

Classic Brighton. A chance from a long hoof up the field.
