·
93 teams (best qualified clubs in domestic leagues) play
a preliminary round on a home and away basis. The aggregate
score of both games decides the winner. The teams from the most
important European leagues have a bye in this round.

The 64 teams qualified after the preliminary round enter
a 1/32 Final stage, divided into sixteen groups of four playing a

and defeats. In case of a tie between two or more teams after

average; 3) individual wins and defeats.

stage qualify for a 1/16 Final knock-out round (X-pairings,
home and away games). The 16 winners advance further to the
rounds of 1/8 Final, 1/4 Final and 1/2 Final (also with home
and away games). · The final is played on a home and away basis. |

RESUMEN (SUMMARY) En una sensacional demostración de garra, un Estudiantes sin Chandler Thompson (lesionado de gravedad en las semifinales) se impuso por 16 puntos de diferencia (93-77) a un FC Barcelona con mayor presupuesto, banquillo y centímetros. Los colegiales, en una segunda mitad increíble ―perdían al descanso 39-42― pasaron literalmente por encima de los azulgrana y acercaron el título de la Copa Korać a las vitrinas del Ramiro de Maeztu. Se trataba, por otro lado, de la primera ocasión en la que dos equipos españoles disputaban una final europea.
La victoria del Estudiantes no fue tanto el triunfo de un equipo, sino la reivindicación de toda una filosofía de baloncesto. Y es que los jóvenes de la cantera estudiantil representan el romanticismo de un grupo de amigos que siente los colores de su club como ningún otro y que se dejan la piel en cada encuentro para contentar a su “demente” afición. Con los mil millones que le costó Milan Gurović al Barcelona se podría comprar casi un par de veces al Estudiantes al completo. Sin embargo, el que secó al yugoslavo nacionalizado griego fue un chaval de la cantera de 19 años, Felipe Reyes, hermano del internacional Alfonso Reyes. Sólo entendiendo la especial idiosincrasia que inculca el Ramiro de Maeztu se puede comprender que un equipo con un solo extranjero apabulle a todo un FC Barcelona, o que, en un gesto de solidaridad poco común en el baloncesto profesional, se incluya de forma simbólica el número y el nombre del lesionado Chandler Thompson en el acta oficial del partido.
Los “toreros” ya dieron un primer aviso de lo que eran capaces al comienzo del partido y, tras un parcial de 11-0, abrieron la primera brecha importante en el marcador (21-13, min. 9). Sin embargo, coincidiendo con los mejores minutos de los estudiantiles, Bárcenas (el sustituto de Thompson) sufrió la fractura del tabique nasal en un encontronazo con Gurović en el minuto 8 que le obligó a abandonar la pista momentáneamente y aparecer más tarde con una máscara de protección. Este incidente pareció enfriar los ánimos locales, y entre las penetraciones suicida de Esteller y los triples de Ðorđević el Barcelona pudo retirarse al descanso con ventaja en el marcador (39-42), aunque sin ofrecer ni muchísimo menos una sensación de autoridad y confianza.
Tras el paso por vestuarios, sin embargo, el Barcelona pareció salir anestesiado y, en un abrir y cerrar de ojos, los triples de Azofra, Jiménez y Vandiver le dieron la vuelta al partido (58-45, min. 24). La cuarta falta personal de Dueñas y el resurgir de Alfonso Reyes sirvieron para ampliar las diferencias entre un equipo que suplía con casta su evidente falta de centímetros y otro que, sobrado de altura, se veía incapaz sin embargo de dominar el rebote (40 rechaces del Estudiantes frente a tan sólo 21 del Barcelona). La defensa fortísima y agotadora planteada por Pepu Hernández, llena de ayudas y trampas, desestabilizó por completo a los hombres de Aíto, y las diferencias no dejaron de crecer (67-53, min. 31; 72-56, min. 32; 79-61, min. 35) hasta una máxima de 19 puntos (92-73) a 20 segundos del final. Dentro de una semana, los toreros del Ramiro tendrán la oportunidad histórica de completar su faena y conquistar su primer título europeo, aunque el Barcelona ya remontó anteriormente una desventaja de 16 puntos en la eliminatoria de cuartos de final frente al Ducato Siena. |
