Goals galore from our
Pichichis this week, with fourteen of our nineteen top scorers adding to their
tally. Ronaldinho was the man on best form though, with a spectacular goal in
the UEFA cup and two more at the weekend against Deportivo as Barcelona made it
seven straight wins on the trot. Eto'o, Riquelme and Sonny Anderson also scored
in their midweek UEFA matches as Spanish sides all did well, and Luque got a
vital Champions' League goal for Depor against Juventus the day before. The
young striker was responsible for the miss of the season though at the weekend
against Barcelona, which could have saved a point after his side had gone three
down to goals by Saviola and the aforementioned Ronaldinho, but had recovered
with two headed goals by half time substitute Pandiani.
Ronaldo got his usual goal
at the weekend and Figo got another as Real Madrid hammered Celta, although
Milosevic did at least make the scoreline look more respectable with a late
consolation strike. Salva moved up to second place in our table with his third
in consecutive games, re-opening the debate about who Iñaki Sáez
will take to Portugal with him this summer. Mista is another candidate for
selection and he too added to his total at Espanyol, although Sáez still
prefers Tamudo, who got both goals for Valencia's opponents to win the match,
and also Fernando Torres, who scored what was probably the goal of the weekend
to win Atlético's game at Mallorca in the last minute. (01.03.04)
