Expressing his ambitions, striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is determined to contribute to Gabon’s qualification for the CAN 2013. After a reserved performance in the first leg against Togo, Aubameyang, who recently scored for AS Saint-Etienne against Nancy (4-0), is eager to deliver his best performance of the season.
Having joined the Gabonese squad in Cotonou (Benin) after his club duties, Aubameyang views the upcoming match against the Sparrowhawks as a significant mission. Reflecting on the challenges ahead, he acknowledged the difficulty of the task and emphasized the need for a collective effort. Recalling past encounters, particularly in 2010, he highlighted the contentious context, citing unawarded penalties in their favor. Aubameyang expressed his determination to put forth a stellar performance and lead the team to success, aiming to secure qualification.
With the crucial match scheduled for October 14 in Lomé, where Gabon must score to enhance their chances of qualification (following a 1-1 draw in the first leg), Aubameyang is ready to embrace the challenge and contribute to achieving this important feat.
