Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang Breaks Long Standing Goalscoring Record During Cardiff City Win

After finding the back of the net during Arsenal's 2-1 victory over Cardiff City on Tuesday, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang cemented his place as the fastest ever Arsenal striker to score 25 Premier League goals, taking the Gabon international just 37 games.

According to Opta, this goal moved Aubameyang ahead of club legends Thierry Henry and Ian Wright, who took 45 and 51 games respectively to reach the milestone. He also bettered the pace set by Alexis Sanchez and Emmanuel Adebayor, who both needed around 60 matches to net 25 league goals.
