Complete the sequence: 2, 4,
6, 7....? Poor old Sporting keeper Sergio Sánchez is setting new
negative records for La Liga after letting in 19 goals in his first four
matches! New signing Iván Cuéllar must be grateful that he was
injured at the start of the season, otherwise he might have been if the firing
line! He may well be though next weekend when the Asturians host Villarreal.
Sporting's 7-1 defeat at
Real Madrid aside, the other nine midweek games produced 20 goals, Last week's
leaders Casto and Kameni give way to Renan, Diego López and Aranzubia,
Valencia and Villarreal topping the league table after both won again, and
Deportivo drawing 0-0 at Ricardo's Osasuna. As well as the above four, there
were clean sheets for Moyà (Mallorca), Palop (Sevilla) and Sergio Asenjo
(Valladolid), all of whom were on the winning side. Despite the proximity of
games, only one team changed their keeper, Aguirre sticking to his rotation
policy at Atlético Madrid bringing in Leo Franco for Coupet. (26.09.08)
