| The
last round of matches of the millenium took place midweek, with the top two
Pichichis facing each other. Rivaldo came out on top with two goals, both of
which somewhat fortunate, to end the year on top of the pile, although Javi
Moreno did get one back from the penalty spot later on. The top two have opened
up a four goal gap on the following group, with Michel joining his team mate
Bolic in third place on 12 goals after getting a consolation goal against Real
Madrid in the local derby. Catanha and Raúl kept up their push on the
leaders with a goal apiece, taking them both up to eleven. Raúl's left
footed high volley was one of the best of the season. Kluivert caught up with
Guti on ten with one of Barcelona's three against Alavés, and Carew
moved up with his third goal in the league in a row. He will have to miss a
game now though, as the referee sent him off for celebrating.
