Aubameyang's 2nd hat trick in 4 days caps off 1-sided Dortmund win
Reuters
Borussia Dortmund's star striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang finished off a six-goal week with his second career hat trick in a comprehensive 5-1 Bundesliga victory over Augsburg.
The Gabonese international secured his second three-goal game of the week - coupled with a hat-trick performance during Thursday's 3-1 Europa League win over FK Qabala - thanks to a dazzling dribbling display from teammate Shinji Kagawa.
Kagawa was in fine form Sunday, but the headlines will be Aubameyang's, as Thomas Tuchel's side appears to again be the greatest threat to Bayern Munich's top-flight hopes.
Aubameyang is now tied with Bayern goal-machine Robert Lewandowski for the Bundesliga lead with 13 goals, and has 20 tallies and five assists in all competitions.
