Players must hold the nationality of a European country. The Champions League is a game at the club level. Teams are composed of clubs, and players can be of any nationality.
Event process
The European Cup is held only once every four years, while the Champions League is held once a year. The European Cup is held longer than the Champions League. The whole process of the European Cup: first, you need to qualify, then enter the group stage, and then enter the knockout stage. The long process requires four years of selection, and the selection time is usually carried out when the players have no club events. The organizers of the European Championship went directly to the final week, and other teams were divided into several groups, and each group played the qualifiers.
The Champions League is more complicated, and the number of places is allocated according to the points of the league clubs in the past. Take La Liga for example. There are four places in La Liga. As long as the club ranks in the top four in the country (Spain) this season, it can enter the Champions League group stage. For many fans, with the expansion of the European Cup, it is true that the long group stage will make many games boring. If we say the gold content of the European Cup, we may have to calculate it before expanding.
