What is the Eurasian Cup system?

The draw for the European Cup qualifiers will be held on February 23rd, with 53 teams from outside France participating, and the new UEFA army Gibraltar will participate for the first time. The qualifiers are divided into nine groups, eight of which have six teams, and one group has only five teams. France will automatically enter this group. In the "5+ 1" group where France is located, the matches between the other five teams and France are purely friendly and are not included in the group results.

Due to the expansion of the finals, UEFA also adjusted the rules for the promotion of the qualifiers: the top two of the nine groups directly advanced to the finals. Among the nine groups, the third place with the best performance against the first, second, fourth and fifth places in this group will directly enter the finals, and the performance against the sixth place in this group will not be considered. In addition to the third place in the group directly promoted, the other eight groups will draw lots to play the third place in the play-offs, resulting in the last four promotion teams.

The European Cup qualifiers will be held from September 20 14 to June 20 15, and the play-offs will be held in June 20 1 15. 20 15 12 12 European Cup finals will be drawn by groups, and the finals will be held in France from June 10 to July 10.
