Real Sociedad suffer a 3-2 defeat at the hands of Espanyol in La Liga.

Espanyol have defeated Real Sociedad 3-2 in La Liga after Hernan Perez struck a 91st-minute winner.

Real Sociedad dominated the early stages of the match, and Aritz Elustondo headed wide of the right post from a corner after three minutes.

Carlos Vela then had a chance when he picked up Sergio Canales's through ball, but the forward could not hit the target.

Imanol Aggirretxe broke the deadlock in the 20th minute with a close-range finish after Alberto de la Bella's assist.

Espanyol had a number of chances to equalise before half time. First, Victor Alvarez missed the target from long range before Enzo Roco and Gerard had shots blocked.

Just as the match looked like it was going to finish as a draw, Perez headed into the bottom right corner from Alvaro Gonzalez's corner.
