Guti gets glory goal!
Sunday, 14 September 08, 02:49 PM · Comments(2)
Guti has received the honor of scoring the 5,000 goal in La Liga. He popped in an equalizer against Numancia in the 18th minute to make him the 5,000 person to make the net ripple in Spain. Raul won the honor for the 4,500th goal.
Real Madrid went on to win 4 v 3 against a battling Numancia side who beat Barca last week. Numancia went ahead twice in the first half but by half time Madrid had scored four goals from Guti, Higuain, Van Der Vart and Cisma. Even though it was a cagey performance by the league holders Bernd Schuster, manager of Real, has said he's not worried (yet).Elsewhere, Espanyol beat Recreativo 1 v 0 to go top of the league, Valencia lost 2 v 1 against Almeria and Villarreal beat Deportivo 1 v 0, Malaga v Athletic and Getafe v Betis were both 0 v 0.
It's still early days and things aren't looking cushty for the Barca and Real at the moment. Let’s hope we get some more saucy Numancia action next week and keep the top two on their toes.
NEXT WEEK BIG DERBY BETIS V SEVILLA!

To be honest Guti is a good player but the game really din't deserve the 5000th goal to come from a Madrid player at all, a Numancia player was mor deserving as they played there hearts Out
Can't agree with you more, I was hoping that Moreno was going to get it, anyone apart from a Madrid player would have been worthy.
