Athletic went into the break with three goals to be good.

After the break, Berenguer found himself on the scoresheet, making it 4-0 for the home side, before Alvaro Tejero pulled one back for Espanyol.

With his brace over the weekend, Inaki has now scored his ninth career brace in La Liga. The Ghanaian now has seven goal involvements in 10 games this season.
