On February 3, 2024, according to CCTV5 program list, the European Cup qualifier has entered the final round, and the qualification quota and seed team identity of each group will be determined in this round of competition. What are the ranking rules of the European Cup? In addition to points, it depends on the number of goals and goals conceded. Let's get to know!

There are 10 groups in the European Cup qualifiers. The first two of each group will qualify directly, and the remaining 10 third places will enter the play off, competing with the four best group champions of the Federation National League for the last four places to qualify. If two or more teams in the group have the same points, they will be ranked in the following order:

1. Points for direct confrontation in the group
2. The goal difference of direct confrontation in the group
3. Number of goals for direct confrontation in the group
4. Total goal difference in the group
5. Total number of goals in the group
6. Total away goals in the group
7. Fair competition points (red and yellow cards)
8. UEFA National Team Ranking

This means that if two or more teams have the same points in the group, the first thing to look at is the result of the game between them, rather than the result of their game against other teams. If the result of the match between them is not superior, it depends on their goal difference, goals, away goals and other indicators. If all the indicators are the same, it depends on the number of red and yellow cards. If they are still the same, it depends on their national team ranking in UEFA. The team ranking higher is preferred.

What are the advantages of such ranking rules? First of all, it can motivate the team to go all out in every game in the group, because the result of every game may affect their ranking. Secondly, it can prevent the team from deliberately drawing or losing in the last round of the group game, so as to achieve some tactical purpose, such as avoiding strong teams or selecting opponents. Finally, it can ensure that the team's ranking is more fair and objective, because it not only considers the team's points, but also considers the team's offensive and defensive capabilities, as well as the team's discipline and reputation.

Let's take a look at the current group matches, which teams have qualified, which teams still have hope, and which teams have failed to qualify. The following is the group championship as of February 2, 2024, in which teams that have qualified are shown in bold, teams that have failed to qualify are shown in italic, and teams that hope to qualify are shown in normal font.
