A
record number of goals this week, which meant that goalkeepers suffered. In
fact only two kept their nets free from interference, Deportivo's Molina and
Málaga's Contreras, who comes in to the chart this week in place of
Nuñez. Molina came back from injury to keep a clean sheet against
Oviedo, but that is nothing special as they have still not scored on any of
their eight away games. He catches one up on Cañizares, who let in one
in their away draw at Athletic Bilbao. With games being played midweek, three
managers decided to give their second choice minders an outing. And how they
suffered! Celta's Cavallero let in four, Rayo's Keller let in three, and
Racing's Lemmens didn't even finish the game, getting himself sent off in his
first appearance of the season after giving away a penalty. Ceballos couldn't
save the spot kick, but he did make some good saves to keep his team in the
game. Elsewhere, López Vallejo returned from injury to help Villarreal
to a point. (21.12.00) |
