Toli Sous le Manguier

Ronaldo told a news conference: "It has been an odd season because I had a run of eight games when I didn't score, but I'm four goals behind him and there are two games left so I'll be giving it all I can."

Eto'o is widely credited with having scored 24 goals this season which puts him within a goal of Golden Shoe leader Thierry Henry who will have no further opportunities to add to his tally as the English league season is finished.

According to the Spanish Football League (LFP) Eto'o has scored 25 goals because the referee reported that he got a slight touch to a shot from team mate Deco in his side's 2-0 win over Real Mallorca in February.

Ronaldo is in third place in the scoring charts behind fellow Brazilian Ricardo Oliveira of Real Betis, who has scored 21, and level with Villarreal striker Diego Forlan who has notched up 20 since moving from Manchester United at the start of the season.

Real host city rivals Atletico Madrid on Saturday and champions Barca entertain third-placed Villarreal at the Nou Camp on Sunday.
