Best goalkeepers in league matches (minimum 14 games).

Yet again a relatively low number of goals in what is becoming something of a trend in the first division. Notario and Cañizares are neck and neck at the top of the chart after both let in a goal, and it looks like a battle between them for who will take the Zamora prize. Cavallero stays third despite having to leave the field at half time with what was probably the start of a bout of flu, and he and his replacement Pinto each recorded a half clean sheet, or a clean half sheet, or whatever is the footballing term for that sort of thing.

Four more keepers kept their goals against column to zero, including Westerveld and Toni in the scoreless draw between Real Sociedad and Espanyol, Lemmens in Racing's first win under Piterman, and Reina, who recorded his fourth clean sheet in five games for Villarreal.

Málaga's Contreras came within 30 minutes of setting a new club record when he allowed Michel's free kick past him at his old club Rayo, and Mono Burgos was also in the news after saving everything thrown at him, and then letting in the silly goal of the weekend after Fredi's shot crept under his body (although he claimed he stopped it before it fully crossed the line).

Finally Prats and Bonano drop out of the chart after being hit for a few goals recently. Prats even saved a penalty against Ronaldo, but little good it did him as the Brazilian striker scored from the rebound. That's football. (11.02.03)
