Superliga Goal Scoring Records

Last year I compiled a list of everyone who had scored more than one Superliga goal. Since the Superliga site is nearly impossible to get useful stats from, I decided to expand things a bit this year.

9/2/10 Update: With his brace in the final, Morelia's Miguel Sabah wrote his name into the record books, climbing into a tie for most career goals and most goals in a single tournament. Also of note -- Kevin Alston became the 100th player to score in the history of the Superliga.
