Schedule of the San Marino league play-offs and cup final: https://www.fsgc.sm/coppa-titano-e-camp ... spareggio/amenina wrote: ↑Mon Apr 08, 2024 19:14I think you are correct.eye wrote: ↑Mon Apr 08, 2024 17:45 I don't understand why there is any issue on the topic for San Marino. There are knock out playoff after regular season. Till 2022 even the champion was decided by the playoffs but this changed last year and champion is the winner of regular season and doesn't take part at play off anymore. There is also a match for 3rd place. So at CL take part the champion (winner of regular season) and at ECL takes part the cup winner and the winner of playoffs and in case champion and cup winner is the same club then play off winner gets the CW spot and winner of match for 3rd place gets the other ECL spot. So no club from San Marino has qualified yet. Probably the one who added info at wikipedia page confused because last year the current leader and last year's cup winner Virtus was banned from UEFA and didn't take part at ECL
Also, last season’s play-off final was played on 20 May, while the cup final was played on 27 May. Tre Penne reached the cup final and could have won the league and cup double, but the play-offs was still held with the regular stage second place, Cosmos, taking part in it. Cosmos won the play-off final to qualify for ECL, and then one week later, Virtus beat Tre Penne in the cup final to qualify for the other spot in the ECL, but later they were banned, so La Florita, who lost the play-off final, took the other ECL spot.
One minor thing: With the regular stage winner declared as league champions and no longer playing in the play-offs, the play-off final now decides second and third place, while there is a fourth-place match between the losing semi-finalists to decide fourth and fifth place. Of course, in normal circumstances, the fourth-placed team would have no chance to qualify for Europe (unless San Marino somehow rise to 50th or above in the rankings), but they could be one of the replacement teams if the teams above fail to get a license to compete.
The league 2nd-3rd place play-off final will be played on 18 May, and the cup final will be played on 25 May. The winners of these two matches will qualify for Conference League.
So it appears that no exemption will be given to whoever finish second in the league regular stage between Virtus and La Fiorita. That team would have to either reach the league 2nd-3rd place play-off final, or win the cup final, to qualify for Conference League.
Also it is possible for Virtus and La Fiorita to play a championship play-off to decide the league title on 25 April, after the final round of the league regular stage this weekend. No condition is given in the article about when this would be necessary, but I guess perhaps just like Serie A, it would be played if the two teams finish tied on points at the end of the league regular stage.
In Armenia, Pyunik Yerevan is 25 points above 5th placed Alashkert with 8 games to play and if they finish 4th they will be below Urartu and Ararat-Armenia, the two cup finalists. So Pyunik have qualified for European Football.
In Bosnia and Herzegovina the final is confirmed to be played between current top 2 Borac Banja Luka and Zrinjski. So Borac who is 24 points ahead of 5th place Posusje with 7 games to be played have qualified for European Football.

Lincoln Red Imps and St Joseph's FC qualified for European football.
Lincoln won the Rock Cup and qualified for Conference League Q1, but can play in CL Q1 if they win the championship.
Both teams will finish in top 3 in the league, so St Joseph's also qualified for Europe.

In Armenia, Noah and Ararat-Armenia joined Pyunik as European qualifiers as they are 24 and 23 points above 5th place Alashkert with 8 matches to play, after Alashkert lost today.
In Slovenia, Olimpija joined Celje as European qualifiers as they are 17 points above 4th place Bravo and 18 points above 5th place Koper with 5 matches to play, after Koper lost today.

Real Madrid qualified for CL league phase. They won't finish below top 4 in La Liga. 5th placed Athletic Club are 20 points below with 6 matches left.
Actually, I think that Real already qualified for this stage last week. They were 21 points above Athletic with 7 matches to go. They have better H2H record vs Athletic and they wouldn't finish last in any H2H table involving them, Athletic and other teams among Barcelona, Girona and Atlético.

Yes. They did qualify earlier, but good to have it in the forum.
Virtus are San Marino league champions, and qualified for Champions League Q1.
Will be their first European campaign, after being banned by UEFA for a previous match fixing scandal despite winning the cup last season.

And they won the title with a 95th minute goal, truly incredible. Sergio Agüero, Toby Alderweireld, eat your heart out
If they did not score that goal, they would have been tied on points with La Fiorita, and a championship play-off would have to be played to decide the title.
Ferencváros won the title in Hungary and qualified for CL Q1.
Maccabi Tel Aviv qualified for European Football as they locked top 3, but I should note that there are many point deductions this season in Israel for crowd trouble, I wouldn't be surprised if Maccabi gets one in upcoming games.
A question for Belgian specialists!
Is it still possible for AA Gent to qualify for Champions League.
Suppose: ClubBrugge - Antwerp and Union endup outside the top 2.
Club Brugge wins the conference leage (-> Group Europa League, but no extra place for Belgium)
Antwerp wins the cup (-> Europa League play off)
Union qualified as winner of the regular compettion (-> Qualifiers of the Confederations League).
=> Gent play number two for the lowest open place: Q3 of the Champions League.
Where am I wrong? Or has Gent really still a chance to play Champions League.

This is false. Gent can only qualify for ECL Q2 as winners of both the European playoffs and the ECL play-in gamePutje wrote: ↑Sat Apr 20, 2024 22:40 A question for Belgian specialists!
