VIDEOS: 2 robust strikes highlight eventful Vallecano-Espanyol tilt

Rayo Vallecano's Bebe - he of a questionable meteoric rise to Manchester United followed by years of footballing obscurity - nullified Espanyol midfielder Abraham Gonzalez's opener in the 67th minute with a right-footed screamer, only to be outdone by Hernan Perez's rocket 10 minutes later.

Perez's strike ended up being the winner, and with the three points, Espanyol vaults Las Palmas into 14th place, while Vallecano continues to hover alarmingly close to the drop zone in 17th - even on points with relegation fodder Granada.
