You won't see a sweeter-struck volley than Mubarak Wakaso's this weekend

The La Palmas winger may have burst the net with his strike in the win over Espanyol last night.

LAS PALMAS ROMPED to a 4-0 win over Espanyol in La Liga to ensure their visitors’ lingering relegation fears remain.

Espanyol were hit by the early injury loss of midfielder Abraham but Las Palmas had to wait until first-half stoppage time to unpick their visitors.

Jonathan Viera slid a pass through for Nabil El Zhar to steer a shot through goalkeeper Giedrius Arlauskis.

Viera got in on the act himself by drilling into the bottom corner four minutes after the restart and his cross was headed home by Pedro Bigas in the 56th-minute to complete an emphatic period for Quique Setien’s side.

Substitute Mubarak Wakaso completed the scoring with a fine volley after a ramshackle Espanyol failed to deal with a corner.

The Ghanaian winger, on loan from Rubin Kazan, caught the ball perfectly to blast it into the top corner.
