In 2024, the Copa del Rey was held in Málaga, once again proving to be a talismanic city for Real Madrid, where the Whites, just like four years ago, reclaimed the title after defeating Barcelona in a thrilling final
The final was fiercely contested until the beginning of the final quarter, where Real Madrid managed to seize a maximum lead of twelve points, enabling them to enter the final minutes with a comfortable advantage to secure the title without much pressure, transitioning from the (66-63) scoreline at the end of the third quarter to a final score of (96-85).
Real Madrid distributed their scoring well, with six players scoring 10 or more points, with MVP Campazzo standing out, alongside an impeccable Poirier who excelled both defensively and offensively, not missing a single shot at the basket.
The expulsion of Vesely due to five personal fouls was crucial, as he was one of the best performers for Barcelona, and his absence came at a crucial moment when Real Madrid surged ahead on the scoreboard, ensuring they wouldn’t look back.
