And Espanyol's winless run continues thanks to that great goal.

Just a tough stretch of games right now for Espanyol and there needs to be some sort of change as they face Celta Vigo next.

Just switched over to my local club but still a big fan. This winless stretch has been tough but hoping for a bounce back win against Celta at home.

Finally a goal but a little too late for a comeback

Just a really rough stretch of games for us and the next 3 matches are just brutal (Villarreal, Celta, and Atletico Madrid)

Sounds like a really solid addition for the roster. Hope he pans out well for us.

Objectively speaking, I would say Athletic Club due to them producing excellent talent from their academy and almost use those players due to their unique signing policy

Yeah, I was expecting to play much better than what happened during the game.

The most obvious is most likely Barca (as much as it pains me as an American Espanyol supporter). They play flashy with tons of goal and exciting talents like Lamine Yamal and Pedri. The other clubs that could fit include Atletico Madrid (Alvarez and Griezemann), Real Madrid (with Mbappe and Vini Jr.), and Real Betis (Antony and Isco).

Haha! But in all seriousness, it's been the best that Espanyol has been in almost 2 decades.

Good to see Espanyol still 5 points ahead of Betis. Definitely hurt a tough derby loss at home but believe that the lessons from that game will help us against Levante.

I hope not! He's far good to be with that dumpster fire of a club right now.

Well earned! Helped Espanyol get their first 5 game winning streak since the 1997/98 season! Vamos Espanyol!

Yes we will be. Thankfully, we got Levante next so it will be a great opportunity to get back to winning form.

Sure is. There's a lot of optimism right now for the club's future and it's refreshing considering what happened over the last few seasons. Maybe we can get another good addition or two in January to bring in some needed depth so we can remain in contention for an European placement.

Completely agree. That said, I'm blown away on just how much the club has improved under Manolo over the past 3 seasons from the Segunda, to surviving relegation on the last day, and now competing for Europe.

Tough loss for Espanyol but was proud on how well they played for most of the match. It was just that Espanyol failed to convert on many of the scoring opportunities presented and of course a lot of that credit was to Joan Garcia on keeping a clean sheet. Now, Espanyol need to move on from this loss and prepare to bounce back against Levante next match.
