OM: Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang wins over Daniel Riolo

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang

Last night at the Orange Vélodrome, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang put on a show against Newcastle in the Champions League. He made such an impression that French pundit Daniel Riolo was completely won over.

With a lightning-quick brace in the second half, Aubameyang powered OM to a 2-1 victory over Newcastle in the Champions League last night. And nobody was more delighted than Daniel Riolo, the RMC consultant who had previously been skeptical about the Gabonese striker's performances this season.

"Let's be honest, we were waiting for a real answer from Aubameyang. It's important to be a good presence in the locker room, but on the pitch, since the start of the season, he hadn't really impressed me. But now, this is the answer. In a Champions League match, this guy steps up, gives you the answer, and shows he's still capable of that. I have to say, thank you, sir," said Riolo.
