Diego Forlán is La Liga's Pichichi this season! The Villarreal striker scored two more in his side's win over Levante to overtake Samuel Eto'o on the last day of the championship. Eto'o had a goal deducted by the trophy's organizers, the spots paper Marca, but was still looking safe until Forlán got a hat-trick against Barcelona themselves last week. The ex Manchester United man's 25 league goals takes him level with Arsenal's Thierry Henry in the race for the European golden boot, which they will presumably share. Eto'o still wins Soccer-Spain's award though (cup final permitting), which is based on all club competitions.

Curiously only two of our top strikers got their names on the scoresheets this weekend as well as Forlán, Real Madrid's Ronaldo and Owen both hitting the back of the net as their side beat Zaragoza 1-3. (30.05.05)

P.S. Oliveira scored again in the cup final as Betis bet Osasuna 2-1 after extra time, and he pips Forlán for second place in our chart. (11.06.06)
