Deportivo La Coruña joined Valencia and Real Madrid in the next phase of the Champions League thanks to a late goal by Walter Pandiani. Their 1-0 victory against Panathinaikos was enough to see them through, and with one game to go they are top of group E with 9 points. Barcelona appeared to be down and out, a goal behind to Leeds United after Lee Bowyer's free kick was missed by Dutruel. However Rivaldo equalized with virtually the last kick of the match to keep their hopes alive. They must now beat Besiktas in the Nou Camp next week and hope that Milan beat Leeds to qualify in second place in group H. (24.10.00)
