Pichichis

It was back to work as usual for Spain's footballers after a two week lay-off for the festive season, with 24 goals on the opening weekend of the new year. Eleven of those came in two games though, with Luque and Diego Tristán scoring either side of Víctor's hat-trick as Deportivo La Coruña thrashed their Galician neighbours Celta 0-5, and Baraja getting two and Mista another as Valencia beat their local rivals Villarreal 4-2. Riquelme was one of the goalscorers for the visitors, and he is one of the new boys in this week's table together with the aforementioned Baraja and Tristán. The top two though are still the Real Madrid pairing of Ronaldo and Raúl, and this time it was Raúl's turn to get his name on the scoresheet, a goal which takes him level with Hugo Sánchez as his side's third best goalscorer of all time.
