Matching http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 and Real Madrid
duo for the Pichichi title.
Atletico Madrid’s latest La Liga outing at the Anoeta saw them cornered by Real Sociedad. However, Falcao had the final say on the matter as he scored in the final moments of the game to secure all three points on offer.
It was El Tigre’s 12th goal of the season; a mammoth tally by any accounts, while disregarding his four for Colombian national team. However, it is the manner in which the goals have come that is impressive.
Falcao scoring record for Los Colchoneros and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Colombia-c2873 in their latest set of competitive fixtures, allowed him to equal Lionel Messi’s record. His sixteen goals in ten fixtures has only seen him fail to hit the back of the net against Levante at the Ciudad
de http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Valencia-c40863 stadium.
The opening fixture of 2012/13 La Liga season ended in 1 -1, but since then no opposition has been able to quieten El http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 with a hat-trick.
Earlier, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Athletic-Club-c38535 had faced a similar fate to the Blues in 4-0 beating.  Real Betis got away with two from Falcao at the Benito Villamarin in a 2-4 chastising. Following the aforementioned results, the 26-year-old scored one against Rayo Vallecano (4-3),
Real Valladolid (2-1), Malaga (2-1) and Real Sociedad (0-1). While on national duty, he scored one against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Paraguay-c2979 (2-0).
During this time interval, Falcao missed a total of four games for club and country. Three came with Los Rojiblancos, with one coming in Colombia’s friendly against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cameroon-c2865. He was given a rest in Atletico’s UEFA Europa League fixture against Hapoel Tel
Aviv, and missed matches against Espanyol and Viktoria Plzen through injury.
