Barcelona hit four past Napoli to book last 16 place in style as Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scores again
Barcelona beat Napoli 4-2 in their Europa League play-off second leg thanks to goals from Jordi Alba, Frenkie de Jong, Gerard Pique and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, securing their place in the round of 16 with a 5-3 aggregate win. With Napoli coming into the game on the back of three 1-1 draws – including their determined rearguard action at Camp Nou in the first leg last week – and with the meanest defence in Serie A, it looked likely to be a tight, cagey affair at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona. Barring the first five minutes in which the two teams sized each other up, the reality was drastically different.
