After three La Liga games without finding the net, Barcelona star Lionel Messi rediscovered his scoring touch at the weekend. The tricky attacker netted twice to help the Blaugrana to a 3-1 win over Almeria and has now scored 29 league goals.
His biggest rival in the race for the European Golden Shoe, Cristiano Ronaldo, also scored as Real Madrid brushed Athletic Bilbao aside 3-0, meaning that Messi moved one goal clear of the Portugal international.
Elsewhere, Udinese’s Antonio Di Natale scored once against Roma, but the experienced forward couldn’t prevent his side from losing 2-1 against the Lupi.
Manchester United recorded a routine 2-0 win over Fulham this week and Dimitar Berbatov scored to add to his already impressive tally. The forward sits fifth in the standings with 21 Premier League goals.
Senegalese striker Papiss Cisse helped Freiburg to a 3-2 win over Hoffenheim by converting a spot kick at the hour mark.
Edinson Cavani, Moussa Sow, Mario Gomez, Marco Di Vaio and Carlos Tevez all failed to find the find, but still are among Europe’s ten finest attackers.
