Bang, bang, bang.
That's all Gabon goal machine Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang seems to be doing these days, and on Sunday, he banged in another.
His strike was the 22nd of the season for Borussia Dortmund as they defeated derby rivals Schalke 3-2 in the Bundesliga.
The 26-year-old striker's goal in the 48th minute made it 3-1 for Dortmund and proved the winner despite visitors Schalke scoring afterwards.
Aubameyang received a yellow card after pulling off his shirt in celebration to reveal a T-shirt bearing the text ‘Do you remember?’ under the Batman logo, having donned a “Caped Crusader” outfit in the derby last February when he also scored in a 3-0 win over Schalke.
It was his 14th goal in 12 matches in the Bundesliga this season, making him joint-top scorer in the league with Bayern Munich's Polish striker Robert Lewandowski.
The result leaves second-placed Dortmund five points behind Bundesliga leaders Bayern, and eight points clear of third-placed Wolfsburg, while Schalke stay fifth.
Aubameyang also scored in last Thursday's 4-0 win over Azerbaijani side Qabala, making him the leading scorer in Europe with 22 goals in all competitions.
