Espanyol have claimed their first win of the 2017-18 season with a 2-1 victory over Celta Vigo at the RCDE Stadium in Barcelona on Monday.
Gerard Moreno put Espanyol ahead with a low shot from just inside the area in the 10th minute. Pablo Piatti then added to the lead midway through the first half with a cross shot into the far corner.
The home side managed to hold on for all 3 points despite a 69th-minute strike from Celta’s defender Andreu Fontas.
The Catalan club moved off the bottom of the standings after earning only one point from its first 3 games.
