In addition, Juventus won the French team Nantes, which is a good signing. Mourinho's Roma successfully avoided Seville, the 6-time champion of the Europa League, at the last minute, which was also a good signing.
Compared with the Champions League knockout, the rules of the Europa League knockout are different. 16 in the top stage, the team with the first place in eight groups will be promoted directly, and the remaining eight places will be decided by two rounds of play-offs with the second place in eight groups and the third place in the Champions League.
Arsenal, Fenerbahce, Betis, San Giraud, Real Sociedad, Feyenoord, Freiburg and ferenc Varos decided to rank first in their respective groups in the final round of this week's Europa League group stage, advance to the 16, and avoid playing against many champions eliminated from the Champions League.
However, Manchester United, the Premier League giants, is unlucky enough. Originally, as long as you beat Royal Society 2-0, you won 1-0, and finally locked in the second place in the group and had to participate in two rounds of play-offs.
Europa league knockout 16 teams:
Second place in the Europa League: Eindhoven, Rennes, Rome, Berlin United, Manchester United, China, Japan, Netherlands, Nantes, Varos and ferenc.
Third place in the Champions League: Ajax, Leverkusen, Barcelona, Portuguese Sports, Salzburg, Donetsk Miners, Seville, Juventus.
