Now that the European football season is approaching its climax and Club Brugge is the latest Belgian club eliminated, a new assessment of UEFA’s dealings can be made. With an annual total of 14,400 points, the Belgian teams were performing better than ever. Thus, our country strengthens its eighth position in the European classification.
Our country can look back on its fantastic season in Europe, the highlight of which was the historic semi-final against Club Brugge in the Conference League. This also increases the brightness of the European parameter.
Belgium has never collected more coefficient points than last season: 14,400. Our country is performing better than the previous record season last year. We then finished with an annual total of 14,200 points.
The five-year total, which determines position in the European rankings, now stands at 48,800 points. With this number, Belgium ranks eighth, far behind its first pursuers, Turkey, the Czech Republic and Scotland.
| Classification of countries in the European Football Association | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Season 23/24 | the total | ||
| 5. | France | 16,250 | 66,831 |
| 6. | Holland | 10,000 | 61,300 |
| 7. | Portugal | 11000 | 56,316 |
| 8. | Belgium | 14400 | 48800 |
| 9. | turkey | 12000 | 38,600 |
| 10. | Czech Republic | 13,500 | 36,050 |
| 11. | Scotland | 6400 | 36,050 |
The top ten places in the UEFA rating allow you to get a direct ticket to the group stage of the Champions League. Given our edge over the rest, our country seems to be in the safe zone for a few years.
The fact that Belgium has performed so well in the world rankings in recent years is undoubtedly due to the introduction of the Conference League.
The points that clubs can earn in the third European club competition are equivalent to Champions League and Europa League points. Belgium has been able to make optimal use of this system, especially in the past two years.
