About UEFA Europa Conference League
The UEFA Europa Conference League is a professional football club competition organized by UEFA, the governing body for football in Europe. It was introduced in the 2021-2022 season as the third-tier competition, below the UEFA Champions League and the UEFA Europa League.
The Europa Conference League was created to provide more opportunities for smaller clubs in less established football leagues across Europe. It includes teams that finish in lower positions in their domestic leagues and provides a path to qualify for the Europa League or Champions League.
The competition consists of three qualifying rounds and a play-off round, followed by a group stage featuring 32 teams. The group stage is followed by knockout rounds, including a round of 16, quarter-finals, semi-finals, and the final. The winner of the Europa Conference League earns a place in the following season's Europa League.
The Europa Conference League has received mixed reactions from football fans and experts, with some criticizing it as diluting the quality of European club football, while others see it as an opportunity for smaller clubs to showcase their talent and compete at a higher level.
