Tony Yeboah’s Bundesliga record equaled by Emerick-Aubameyang

Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang has equaled the feat of the former Ghana striker as African’s all-time top scorer in the Bundesliga.

The 28-year-old registered a brace on Saturday when his side Borussia Dortmund saw their four-goal lead leveled by Shalke O4 in a game the Gabonese international after equaling Yeboah’s feat was sent off.

Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang scored over 30 goals in the Bundesliga last season to win the German topflight league's top scorer.

Tony Yeboah won the Bundesliga top scorer twice during his day at Frankfurt in the early 1990’s and he is the only African to attain this feat feat, but the 2015 African Footballer of the Year is looking forward to equal it.
