Fourth-place Valencia lost a chance to put distance with their closest rivals for the final Champions League qualifying spot after suffering a 3-0 defeat to Espanyol at Montjuic.

Román Martínez came on as a substitue in the 64th minute and the midfielder's first touch was a fierce left-footed drive that went into the top of goal.

Nicolás Pareja put the home side two up with seven minutes left after beating César Sánchez with a powerful dead ball.

The hosts wrapped up the victory deep into stoppage time when Nenê scored from the penalty spot after Francisco Rufete was fouled by Pablo Hernández inside the area.
