A sixth straight clean sheet
for Víctor Valdés, and only Casillas is anywhere near him after
his fourth in a row. It was a good weekend for keepers though, with another six
also maintaining their goals against column to zero. That included Leo Franco
(Atlético), Aranzubia (Deportivo), Kameni (Espanyol), Asenjo
(Valladolid), Diego López (Villarreal) and Ricardo (Betis), who was back
in the side after a one match ban. His opposite number Cuéllar's return
for Sporting was cut short as he was sent off for handling outside of the area,
Lafuente returning to take over from him for the last quarter of an hour or so.
And elsewhere Racing's Coltorti made his first league start of the season in
place of the suspended Toño at Espanyol. (20.04.09) |
