Aubameyang reiterates Madrid dream after Bernabeu show

Borussia Dortmund star Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang reiterated his desire to play for Real Madrid after dazzling at the Santiago Bernabeu.

After his mother talked up a move to the Spanish capital pre-match, Aubameyang offered a glimpse of what Madrid fans could be in for in the future after scoring a goal and assisting another in the 2-2 Champions League draw on Wednesday.

"Yes [I still want to play for Real], it's a promise I made to my grandfather," he told beIN Sports.

"Right now I feel very good at Dortmund but in the future we'll see."

Trailing to Karim Benzema's brace, Aubameyang sparked Dortmund's comeback with a goal on the hour-mark - his 19th of the season.

"We don't mind who we play," Aubameyang said.

"At half-time we talked about how we all knew we could do something [versus Real] and we did very well in the second-half."
