Brilliant in qualifying tournaments, he missed a penalty in the last minute of the UEFA EURO 2000? quarter-final with France and Spain went home early. Touted as a potential star of the 2002 FIFA World Cup, he began well enough, scoring three goals, but a groin injury ruled him out of the quarter-final with the Korean Republic which Spain lost on penalties. <BR><BR><STRONG>Club<BR><BR><\/STRONG>Born in the capital, Ra&#250;l started out with Club Atl&#233;tico de Madrid. Yet the fact he replaced Real Madrid CF great Emilio Butrague?o on his top-flight debut at the age of 17 gave a clearer indication of things to come. Ra&#250;l is the highest scorer still active in Spain&#39;s Primera Divisi&#243;n, having finished top of the Pichichi charts in 1999 and 2001. He is certainly a big-match performer, having hit the third goal in Madrid&#39;s victory over Valencia CF in the 2000 UEFA Champions League final, another in the win against Bayer 04 Leverkusen two years later, and the clincher against CR Vasco da Gama in the 1998 European\/South American Cup. Ra&#250;l&#39;s form dipped following EURO 2000? but he rediscovered his touch to finish top scorer in the Champions League for two years running. 2002\/03: The goals rarely dry up for Ra&#250;l. He struck 12 in the Champions League and 16 in 31 games as Madrid won another Spanish championship. <\/P>","07457F0B881B82B22AE30767A70DD3E1":"","e_index":0};
