Pauleta nets twice in PSG's 2-0 win over Rennes.

This brings his goal count to 12, well ahead of all Ligue 1 scorers, 2nd place having only 7 goals

[Frank Cunha]

born in Portuguese Azores Islands , his hoping to add to the 42 goals against Saudi Arabia

[UltraViseu]

According to RTPi he is now set to score 50. I hope he scores 60 by the time the Worlc Cup is finished. :-)

Pauleta scored one goal and assist on another

[Frank Cunha]

his leading the French league in goals score

[simaozinho200]

yeah he went over it but with more games under his belt that to me isn't really breaking the record cause you would have to do it in fewer games to make a record

10º José Torres Retirado 34 14



as you can see eusebio played 64 games with 41 goal and pauleta played double the games scored 43 to date in conculsion when it took pauleta double the games it took eusebio is it fair to say that the record should still belong to eusebio untill the record is broken with less games than eusebio

[z187]

Its tracking the goals, not the goal ratio.

btw Pauleta did not play double the amount of games than eusebio.

Pauleta - 80 games
Eusebio - 64 games

64 + 64 is 128 that would be Double the games.
thats a long way from 80.

But still Eusebio played less games
but more importantly he playes against mostly better teams and got more important goals - 9 in the 66 World cup!!! and led qualification to 66 world cup including two wondergoals against Turkey and Czechoslovakia.

The scoring record doesnt mean crap
everyone knows that Eusebio was a greater player than Pauleta and Eusebio is a all-time legend.

but Pauleta is a good player in his own right, but really if he wants to go down in history as somethign more than just a record for "top scorer for Portugal" he will need to have a big performance this World cup and score some goals which he didnt do at Euro- this is the best way to be remembered as.

I hope Pauleta can make up for Euro 2004 this summer with some key goals.

Forca Portugal.

I really think he can win the golden boot. If our defense can help with the attch and Figo, Deco, and ROnaldo support he could tear it up.

[jec1]

I hope he shows up not like the Euros where he was Invisible.

[simaozinho200]

if he plays like he did in qaulifying we will win more than just the golden boot title

3 more goals for Pauleta a 3-1 win

[simaozinho200]

[Frank Cunha]

I believe he either got 19 or 20 goals at this time
