It’s never easy to reach the top, and the same goes for the Champions League. To be worthy of joining this tournament, any team that’s eligible for it needs to rank high in another European League. This is an easy way to determine the best teams in Europe, and they will be the only ones to compete in the most prestigious of them all.
The initial grid of the Championship League consists of four groups, each with eight teams in it, making a total of 32 teams. After several rounds, including a knockout phase, there are only a couple of teams left in each group – the winner and the runner-up. This is where things become really interesting.
After this round, the matches are randomly determined, eliminating any hints of possible bias, and that makes things a lot more interesting, too. The random selection of the competitors during the quarter-finals adds extra thrill as well. The process is repeated throughout the semi-finals as well, and as it revolves, the tension gets higher because the teams that remain after that are always the best ones in Europe, which equals fierce competition.
The best team wins, of course, and winning the Champions League is the highest achievement in the world of football. There is no higher honor for a football club to enjoy, and every club capable of this incredible feat is changed forever. Not only that, but the winner is automatically approved for the next Championship round without the need for going through a qualifications phase.
The UEFA Champions League is more than just a tournament, even if it is the biggest one of them all. It’s also a vital part of football/soccer culture in the world, and everyone respects it because it’s simply the one institution that matters the most.
