Former Arsenal star Aubameyang breaks down in tears and is consoled after Marseille are KO'd from Europa League | N7PAXZ4 | 2024-05-10 09:08:01
FORMER Arsenal star Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang broke down in tears after Marseille were knocked out of the Europa League by Atalanta.
The French side reached the semi-finals but fell short of booking their place in the Dublin final after losing the second leg 3-0.
Marseille drew 1-1 at home with Atalanta last week so knew they had a difficult task to progress.
Atalanta dumped Liverpool out of the competition in the previous round so confidence was high, and when former Everton and Leicester ace Ademola Lookman fired in the opener they never looked in danger of going out.
Goals from Matteo Ruggeri and El Bilal Toure saw Atalanta run out easy winners to leave Marseille's dream of European glory in tatters.
It was a difficult result to take for some, with Aubameyang left in tears at the final whistle.
The striker struggled to compose himself as he tried to hold in the tears, with fans sharing their sympathies.
One reacted saying: "Feel bad for him. He served us the best in one of the darkest time of our club.
"Head up champ you are a legend."
Another added: "Great player, I'm so sorry man."

And another commented: "Aubameyang deserves better."

Aubameyang has enjoyed a terrific campaign in Europe this season with 12 goals in 15 games.
But he is still yet to win anything on the continent having finished as a runner-up in the Europa League in 2019, when Arsenal were beaten 4-1 in the final by Chelsea.
