UEFA Europa League
The UEFA Europa League is an annual football club competition organized by the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA). It was established in 1971 and was originally called the UEFA Cup, but it was renamed to its current name in 2009.
The Europa League is the second-tier competition in European club football, behind the UEFA Champions League. It is open to teams from all over Europe, including those from countries whose leagues are ranked lower in the UEFA coefficient rankings.
The competition begins with a qualifying round, in which teams play knockout ties to earn a place in the group stage. The group stage consists of 48 teams, divided into 12 groups of four teams each. Each team plays six matches against the other teams in its group, with the top two teams from each group advancing to the knockout stage.
The knockout stage consists of a round of 32, round of 16, quarter-finals, semi-finals, and a final. Each round is played over two legs, with the team that scores the most goals over the two legs advancing to the next round. In the event of a tie, away goals count double. If the tie is still not broken, extra time and penalty shootouts may be used to determine the winner.
The winner of the Europa League earns the right to play in the following season's UEFA Champions League, and also qualifies for the UEFA Super Cup against the winner of the Champions League. The Europa League is a prestigious competition in its own right and is often used as a stepping stone for smaller clubs to make their mark on the European stage
