Another from the penalty spot kept Rivaldo at the top
before he went on to play for Brazil at the weekend. He can't get away from his
close followers though, with Guti getting another in the league and Michel
getting two this week, one in Europe and one in the game against Valencia. Javi
Moreno kept up the lead as the league's top scorer with his third in four
games, and Raúl also kept in touch with one of Real Madrid's five
against Las Palmas. Tristán got both Deportivo's goals in the league to
take them joint top, and Bolic, Mendieta and McCarthy all scored to take them
to seven for the season. Víctor's brace against Barcelona gave
Villarreal a surprise victory, and he has now scored four in two weeks. Two
each as well for Catanha and Diego Alonso during the week take them back into
the table after a few weeks without scoring. Quite a week for the boys at the
sharp end! (13.11.00) |
