According to CCTV5 program list (March 2, 2024), the European Cup knockout match is about to start, and 16 teams will compete for eight semi-final seats in eight matches. What are the characteristics of the points system in the knockout rounds of the European Cup? We invited the famous football commentator Li Tie to interpret the four highlights of the points system in the knockout rounds of the European Cup for us.
First, the points system of knockout matches is different from that of group matches. In the group game, the winner of each game gets 3 points, the average gets 1 point, and the loser gets 0 point. The group is ranked according to the number of points. If the points are the same, it is ranked according to the net goal, total goals, match results, red and yellow cards and other indicators. In the knockout match, the winner of each match will be promoted directly, and the loser will be eliminated directly. There is no concept of points. If the two sides are tied within 90 minutes, a 30 minute overtime match will be held. If the overtime match is still tied, a penalty shoot out will be held until the winner or loser is determined.
Second, the points system of elimination matches is conducive to improving the viewing and competitiveness of the competition. In the group game, some teams may take a conservative or giving up attitude in the last round of the game due to early qualification or no hope of qualification, resulting in the loss of suspense and attraction of the game. In the knockout game, every game is a life and death battle, and every team must go all out to strive for every minute and every second, which will make the game more exciting and intense, and also bring more surprises and excitement to the fans.
Third, the points system of elimination matches helps to reflect the fairness and justice of football. In the group match, some teams may encounter opponents with great disparity in strength or disadvantage in sequence due to the luck of drawing lots or the arrangement of the schedule, which will affect the result of the match to some extent. In the knockout phase, each team can enter the knockout phase only after passing the test of the group match. Each game is played at the same time, on the same site and under the same rules, without any bias or interference. Only strength and state can determine the win or loss, which will make football more fair and just.
Fourth, the points system of the knockout matches helps to show the charm and spirit of football. In the group game, some teams may show a relaxed or depressed attitude in the game due to the advantages or disadvantages of points, which will lead to the decline of the quality and level of the game. In the knockout rounds, each team is for a common goal, that is, to win the European Cup. Each game is for a common belief, that is, not to give up, not to lose. This will make the game more charming and spiritual, and will also bring more feelings and encouragement to the fans.
