After the matches of the 2nd qualifying round of the Europa League Sport.ua studies UEFA coefficient table.
I am very satisfied with Kolos iz Kovalevka in his debut match in the European competition. Having won against Greek “Aris” (2: 1), Ruslan Kostyshin’s men took 1.5 points, which gave Ukraine +0,300 points. According to the new rules, in a one-match confrontation, 3 points are awarded for a victory (in the ranking – 1.5 points), for a draw with the transition to a penalty shootout – 2 points (in the ranking – 1 point), and a defeat automatically brings 1 point (in the classification – 0.5 points) in the club and country piggy bank.
Previously, Shakhtar Donetsk, who had received a ticket to the Champions League group round as national champion, automatically took 4 bonus points, with Dynamo Kiev winning 1.5 points, beating AZ Alkmaar (2: 0 ). Total, From Ukraine 7 points, which is 1,400 points when divided between 5 participating teams. We remain in 12th position in the ranking, lagging Turkey by the same 0.500 points and slightly closer to Austria (minus 1.925).
Let’s see how the competition fares. Galatasaray managed to save for Turkey half a point ahead of Ukraine, beating Neftchi of Azerbaijan (3: 1). Turkey has 5 clubs in business, and in the Champions League group only Bashakshehir from Istanbul, and Besiktash, Galatasaray and Alaniyaspor will take the field in Q3 Europa League matches. “Sivasspor” with Ukrainian Sergey Rybalka has a ticket to the LE group round.
But in Austria already lost! Hartberg was defeated in Poland by Piast Gliwice (2: 3), and the Austrians only had 4 clubs left. As a reminder, Austria does not have a direct ticket to the Champions League group, but Red Bull Salzburg will play Maccabi Tel Aviv (Israel) in Q4 of the Champions League.
Among the top 10 countries, there are also From Russia serious failure. Dynamo Moscow suffered a fiasco in Georgia against Lokomotiv Tbilisi (1: 2) and will no longer play in Europe this season.
We note in passing that Ukraine is under pressure Scotland, thanks to the efforts of three clubs at the same time! The Rangers, Aberdeen and Motherwell advanced to the next round. Scotland certainly had an excellent previous season (9,750, seventh in Europe). And with the participation of Celtic (who was transferred from the Champions League to LE by Ferencvaros with Sergei Rebrov), any deal is possible.
As a reminder, a federation in 11th place will lose a direct ticket to the Champions League group round for its champion (except in the special case when there is a vacancy for the winner of the previous Champions League season). Therefore, it is vitally important to compete for the tenth row of the classification next season.
