Aubameyang insists Arsenal want Europa League glory

Arsenal forward Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang insists the club are aiming for Europa League glory.

Aubameyang scored twice as the Gunners kicked off their continental campaign with a 4-2 win over Ukrainian side Vorskla Poltava.

He told BT Sport: "I think we payed well in the first half and in the beginning of the second as well. We have to improve and try to fight not to concede a goal like we did in the last minute.

"I didn't play the Europa League last year with the guys so I am really happy to be back in this competition. We want to go to the final of course.

"I hope we can do well in the next few games. We know the Premier League is long. We have to win these games straight away and perform quickly. It is good to start with a win."
