Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has crucial strike wrongly ruled out in Tottenham defeat while Glenn Hoddle insisted he has ‘got the Premier League written all over him’

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang can count himself unlucky as his half-volley was wrongly ruled out as offside against Tottenham but Glenn Hoddle has praised the striker for his 'Premier League' quality.

It was a rare goalless evening for the Gabonese striker as Borussia Dortmund were shocked by Tottenham losing 3-1 at Wembley in a Champions League opening game which wasn't without controversy.

Aubameyang found the net - and in fantastic fashion at that - shortly after his side went 2-1 down. Unfortunately for him and his team-mates, his well-timed run and sleek half-volley past helpless Spurs goalkeeper Hugo Lloris was wrongly ruled offside with the match in the balance.
