Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is delighted to be off the mark for Barcelona after their 4-1 win at Valencia on Sunday.

Aubameyang, 32, netted a hat-trick as Barça won 4-1, the third goal coming off his back after a Pedri strike from distance and later awarded to him by the match official.

"Mestalla is like a second home for me," the striker told Barca TV. "The last time I played here, I scored a hat-trick in the semifinal of the Europa League for Arsenal; today a brace. This stadium has been good to me. I like playing here!"

Aubameyang was making just his second start for the club after joining on deadline day. He now turns his attention to the Europa League on Thursday.

"I am really happy, above all because we've won a big game which gives us confidence," Aubameyang added. "We had played well in recent games but we had not got the results. This is a big win going into the important game against Napoli."
