Another low scoring week, starting with the midweek games where the cup semi-final between Deportivo and Espanyol ended without goals, and the UEFA Cup where Betis couldn't find the net even once in 180 minutes against Steaua Bucharest. Their city neighbours Sevilla did win through though, strikes from Kanouté and Luis Fabiano giving them victory over Lille.

For the second weekend in a row only 20 goals were scored in the first division, and it could have been worse had the match between Espanyol and Osasuna not ended 2-4. Goals from Tamudo and Luis García were of little use as the Pamplona based side over-ran them, Milosevic in particular adding to his tally once again. Our top scorer Samuel Eto'o was on target though, as was his team mate Larsson (in his case for the fifth game in a row) as Barça extended their lead at the top of the table with a win at Real Sociedad.

Eto'o stays four ahead of David Villa, who got a consolation goal for Valencia in their defeat in Santander. Ewerthon stays fifth in our chart after getting a last minute winner at Málaga, and Diego Forlán and Fernando Torres were both on the scoresheet as Villarreal and Atlético drew 1-1. There was the same score as well between Sevilla and Mallorca, where Saviola's strike was cancelled out by a second half goal from Okubo. (20.03.06)
