In the Championship, Malick Yalcouye of Brighton scored twice in a 5-0 victory over Coventry, continuing his impressive form after being raised in Ivory Coast. In La Liga, Inaki Williams of Athletic Bilbao scored a late equalizer in a 1-1 draw against Elche, marking his first goal of the season.
In Italy's Serie A, Akor Adams of Venezia put his team ahead in a 4-2 victory over Fiorentina, despite a hat-trick from Franco Mastantuono. In Germany's Bundesliga, Christian Kofane of Bayer Leverkusen scored a goal but was held to a 2-2 draw against Augsburg. Finally, Borussia Dortmund's Serhou Guirassy scored two goals in a 3-0 win over Paderborn, despite both being ruled offside.
