This only applies for group winners. If you won your group, you cannot face a team from a higher league. If you didn't win your group but still reached the playoffs, you can face a team from a higher league (like if you finish second in your group in League B, you can face a team from League A)
@@EuropeanQualifiersHub oh so I let’s say all league A winners qualify but Poland (league A team) or England (I don’t know if England still at the moment is league A or league B team) didn’t qualify but the winners of league B couldn’t face them but Norway could?
@@Britishbjornis First of all, England and all other relegated teams count as League A team for the formation of the playoffs. In the scenario you described, it's exactly how you said. Norway could face Poland and England. All of the winners of League B couldn't.
1.I didn't understand how can you get a place in the playoffs in you finish second or third in league b? from what I understood If a team automatically qualify from the euro qualification, then a different nation from the group qualify to the playoffs. 2.where did you find these explanations about the nations league? can you send it here?
1. The postitions in the qualifying group have no effect on the play-offs. Only the first and second spot are important. For play-offs, only the Nations League placement matters. 2. It's those documents: documents.uefa.com/r/Regulations-of-the-UEFA-Nations-League-2022/23-Online and documents.uefa.com/r/Regulations-of-the-UEFA-European-Football-Championship-2022-24/Article-69-Matchday-media-activities-final-tournament-Online
@@EuropeanQualifiersHub OK, if you finish for example second or third in league b in your group, how can you qualify to the playoffs? You need that most teams rank above you to automatically qualify to euro 2024? Let's take Israel for example, If they finish third, do they a chance to qualify to the playoffs?
Yes, they have a chance. If for example all group winners from League B qualify directly, the play-off tickets go to the next four teams in the ranking. As League B group winners are on position 17-20, this would mean that the teams from position 21-24 get a spot. If now, let's say one of the teams from 21-24 also has qualified via the European Qualifier group, the play-off spot would go to position 25. If Israel has the most points out of the third placed finishers, they would grab that spot. Of course, this scenario is not super likely, but very much possible. If Israel finishes second however, it would be more likely of course.
ok, let's talk about a scenario which all the 21 strongest nation automatically qualify (all the teams in league A) and Serbia, Norway, Sweden,Turkey and the Ukraine. So then which teams are entering to the playoffs? let's say that Turkey, the Ukraine and one of Norway/Sweden/Serbia(what a group) top their groups. Then there will be 2 nation who won group B that hasn't qualified to the euros and 3 nations from group c? So who will be the rest 7 nations to join them? by the way, thanks for responding me until now, I am from Israel and just want to know how important these games are for us, because we have never qualified to the euros😢
@@תומרקורינאלדי So, the process goes from bottom to top. We first will look at Path C. In League C, we have the three group winners. They will be joined by the team on position 37 (the best runner-up of League C). Now Path B. We have two group winners. They will be joined by the two best runner-ups that haven't yet qualified. So, I will just say that Sweden is the best runner-up, therefore the teams on position 22 and 23 would be in. For Path A, we obviously have no teams in League A, so we are going to take the best four nations in the overall ranking that did not yet qualify for the EURO directly or for the play-offs. Therefore, we go back to League B. We will first take the runner-up on position 24. Now we have three spots left. Assuming Serbia finished third, there are three third-place finishers (on positions 25-28) that have not yet qualified. The three spots would go to them. So we would have two group winners, three runner-ups and three third place finishers from League B. As Israel can't finish fourth (due to Russia), a scenario like this would mean they have a virtually guaranteed spot in the play-offs. Therefore, the games are very important. Finishing second of course would increase your chances of being picked if there is another scenario! Good luck to Israel for the rest of qualification, it has been too long without you guys qualifying for major tournaments :)
Yes, it actually does. I did not know about this when I made the video. But this is how it works: If there are less than four teams from League A, B or C that can qualify for the play-offs (because they have already qualified for the tournament), the first spot that still has to be allocated goes to the *best* League D group winner. The NEXT spot however would not go to the other League D group winner, but to the best ranked team in the overall ranking that has not yet qualified. So, only one team from League D could make it. I will create a video concerning that topic as well. :) Source: documents.uefa.com/r/Regulations-of-the-UEFA-European-Football-Championship-2022-24/Article-16-Path-formation-play-offs-Online
@@dquinn1988 Oh yeah, you are the ones looking most likely to maybe grab this spot :) It will be out next week, after the 4th Nations League matchday has finished
@@EuropeanQualifiersHub wait so for example, if all the teams in League A automatically qualify for the Euro, the winner of league D will be in pot A, and than after that, the 3 best ranked teams in the nations league who hadn't qualified for the Euros?
why is qualifying for the euro now more complicated to understand than tax documents? im trying to have a beer and watch some talented players play football, not whip out my scientific calculator to calculate the fifth derivation of group A's winner to see if the moon is in the right phase to roll the dice inside the spinning bottle and HOPE that the earths gravitational field and axis-tilt are ALL PERFECTLY ALIGNED TO LET MY TEAM QUALIFY.

Why does it say on Wikipedia that league B, league C and league D can’t face a league A team in the playoffs.
This only applies for group winners. If you won your group, you cannot face a team from a higher league. If you didn't win your group but still reached the playoffs, you can face a team from a higher league (like if you finish second in your group in League B, you can face a team from League A)

@@Britishbjornis No problem!
