The National Stadium of Bucharest - the venue for the final

The 2011/12 UEFA Europa League was the 41st edition of the second most important competition for European football clubs , which was held under the name “UEFA Cup” until the 2008/09 season. 194 clubs from all 53 national associations of UEFA participated in the competition this season.

The season began with the first leg of the first qualifying round on June 30, 2011 and ended with the final on May 9, 2012 in the Arena Națională in Bucharest . There Atlético Madrid prevailed 3-0 in the purely Spanish final against Athletic Bilbao and won the title. As in the previous season, the top scorer of the competition was the Colombian Falcao , this time with Atlético Madrid with twelve goals.

With this win, Atlético Madrid qualified for the UEFA Super Cup 2012 .

Attendees

The participants qualified through the national championships and cup competitions of the UEFA member associations. Only the title holder from the previous year was automatically eligible to start, provided that he had not qualified for the higher-quality Champions League . This was the case this season, however, as defending champions FC Porto, as Portuguese champions 2010/11, were directly eligible for the Champions League. All other participants were determined through qualifying rounds, entered the competition as losers in the Champions League qualification or after the preliminary round as third-placed in the Champions League group stage.

mode

Initially, three qualifying rounds took place between the beginning of July and the beginning of August 2011. The fourth and final qualifying round was called the “ play-off round” for the purpose of better marketing . These games took place at the end of August 2011. When a team went into qualification depended on the club's position in the national championship and the positioning of the home association in the 2010 UEFA five-year ranking . In each qualifying round, the participants were divided into seeded and un seeded clubs based on their club coefficient (KK); purely national pairings were excluded.

In the subsequent group stage, 48 teams were divided into four pots using the club coefficient and then divided into twelve groups of four teams each using a lottery procedure. As in the UEFA Champions League, each group played a full series of home and away games, so the group stage comprised six match days.

The first and second in the group stage reached the final rounds, third and fourth placed teams were eliminated. These 24 teams were joined by the eight third-placed teams from the group stage of the UEFA Champions League. Thus 32 teams reached the knockout phase , in which the opponents were drawn separately for each round, who competed against each other in the two-legged game until the two finalists were determined. Two representatives of one nation were allowed to meet at the earliest in the round of 16. The final was decided in a single game on May 9, 2012 in the Arena Națională in Bucharest.
