Back again after another
break for international matches, with 30 goals being scored in the league this
weekend. There were first defeats though for top two Real Madrid and Barcelona
at Espanyol and Villarreal respectively, the only glimmer of light for the
Blaugrana a first goal for 17 year old Bojan Krkic, who becomes the third
youngest goalscorer of all time in La Liga after Xisco Nadal (Villarreal) and
Mena (Valencia). Valencia and Sevilla bounced back though after their recent
poor results, Morientes and Luis Fabiano getting a brace each for their
respective sides in wins against Deportivo and Levante.
A roller coaster ride for
Atlético Madrid, who lost heavily at Barcelona a fortnight ago but
thrashed Zaragoza 4-0 this weekend. Maxi got two, including a penalty, after
Luis García and Diego Forlán had put Javier Aguirre's side two up
by the break. Mallorca are right up there too though, Güiza scoring early
on in a 0-2 win at Recre, and Athletic Bilbao's Aduríz comes in to our
chart this week as well after netting two against his old club Valladolid.
