CCTV5 Program List On February 25, 2024, the group match of the European Cup has ended, and 24 teams have decided to enter the knockout phase of the last 16 teams. One of the special features of the rules for the promotion of this European Cup is that in addition to the first two players in each group, there are four places to be contested by the third players in all groups. So, how are these third places ranked? Which teams are successfully promoted, and which teams are regrettably defeated?

According to the regulations of UEFA, when comparing the ranking of the third place among different groups, the teams that qualify will be determined in the following order: points, goal difference, goals, fair play scores (direct red card and indirect red card are 3 points, and yellow card is 1 point), and UEFA ranking. Usually, the score can be divided when the goal difference is seen.

The results of the group competition are as follows:

According to the results of the group match, the scores of the six third place teams were 4 points for Switzerland, Czech Republic and Portugal, and 3 points for Finland, Ukraine and Slovakia. In the four point team, the goal difference of the Czech Republic and Portugal is 1, and the goal difference of Switzerland is - 1. Therefore, the Czech Republic and Portugal rank high, while Switzerland ranks low. In the three point team, Ukraine's goal difference is - 1, Finland's is - 2, and Slovakia's is - 5. Therefore, Ukraine ranks high, Finland ranks middle, and Slovakia ranks low.

Therefore, the Czech Republic, Portugal, Switzerland and Ukraine will qualify, and these four teams will compete with the top team in the group match, namely Belgium, England, France and Sweden. The losers were Finland and Slovakia. Although they also performed well, they were still not eligible for the knockout match.

The knockout round of the European Cup will start from the last 16, and the draw will no longer be carried out. Instead, the match map of each match will be specified in advance. From the top 16 to the final, there is a single match elimination system. If the match is leveled within 90 minutes, a 30 minute overtime match will be held. If the overtime match is still leveled, a penalty shoot out will be held. Finally, the winner of the European Cup was decided.

The knockout round of the European Cup will be held in Germany from June 26 to July 11, 2024, when 16 strong teams will have a wonderful competition. Let's wait and see.
