It started to day 07/09/2018. For the first time!
I will sum it up a bit:
What?
Who?
All 55 teams, divided into 4 groups (similar to divisions where La Liga, EPL, Serie A is the first division), based on UEFA's national coefficient rankings as of October 11, 2017.
Rank
Group A: top teams: Germany, Spain, Italy... and
Group D: lowest team
There will be promotion and relegation
This really gives better goal rates and avoid those hammer against San Mario etc...
Champion
The winner can only come from League A and will be determined by a mini-tournament played in June, with semifinals, a game for third place and a final.
Effecting on European qualification:
Combine with the old way (24 teams), then the play off which will be between the winner of the 4 groups above. If already qualified, the next best will play.
Heavier on the existing tight schedule?
The idea is NOT to, just replacing meaningless friendly games.
I love this idea, but today I didn't see that much of exciting matches. But I guess it takes time to change.
What do you guys think?
