Pichichis

An average weekend to start off the new year, with 26 goals in the ten games. The first goal in 2005 though came from a Zidane penalty when Real Madrid and Real Sociedad played out the seven remaining minutes of their match, which had been postponed from day 15 due to a bomb scare. Ronaldo was the man who won the spot kick, and he scored two more at the weekend to give his side a valuable victory over Atlético, and take his career tally in the Calderón stadium to seven. A brace too for Diego Forlán as Villarreal put the brakes on Barcelona, taking him up to third in the league goals chart, and two as well for Luque against his old club Mallorca, for whom Japan's Okubo scored on his debut. Savio scored the winner for Zaragoza on his 31st birthday, and Maxi got his first goal in seven games as Espanyol thrashed Osasuna 4-1. And Baraja also comes in to our chart after getting his seventh in all competitions against city rivals Levante, making him joint top scorer for his club with Di Vaio. (10.01.05)
