Espanyol grabbed a surprising lead Sunday thanks to Sergio Garcia's solo effort during the Barcelona derby.
The Espanyol forward showed great patience as he surged towards the Barcelona box with one man to beat.
Gerard Pique seemed content to allow Garcia to roam closer towards goal, and ultimately paid for his lackadaisical defending when a low shot inside the box beat the Barcelona 'keeper.
