A
good day for goalkeepers, day 5, with no less than ten keeping clean sheets.
With last week's leader Molina hit for three by Real Madrid, Valladolid's
Ricardo moves to the top of the board. Rayo Vallecano's Lopetegui takes second
place, a remarkable feat given that his side have scored more goals than anyone
this season. Even so, he may well give up his place to Kasey Keller for their
UEFA cup tie next week. Herrera and Cañizares let in a goal apiece in
their sides 1-1 draws, and they are now level with Molina on minus one. Herrera
can't blame anyone else but himself, dropping the ball at Karpin's feet in
their match with Celta. Dutruel, Nuñez and Juanmi all enter the table
having kept their goals free this week. Who does not feature is Real Sociedad's
Asper, the poor man having now let in 14 in four and a half matches after
conceding six against Barcelona. Who knows, just ten clean sheets in a row and
he might make it! (16.10.00) |
