Papu Gómez in risk of losing his World Cup and Europa League medal. Argentina and Sevilla not at risk. For teams to lose their titles, more than two players have to test positive for doping.

Explaining the UEFA Euro 2024 qualifying process

In the last few days, I've seen some confusion around how the qualification now works. It used to be simpler, with just group stages, some teams qualifying directly, and some going to the play-offs.

However, with the UEFA Nations League (UNL), things changed. We start by here. This competition has 4 leagues: A, B, C, D. These are ranked, meaning the better teams are at A, and the worst are at D. The A, B & C leagues have 4 groups of 4, and D has only 2 groups (one with 4 teams, the other with 3).

Every league in the UNL is ranked. For example, the 16 teams in League A are ranked 1-16. The four group winners are ranked 1-4, the second placed teams are ranked 5-8, the third placed teams are ranked 9-12, the fourth ranked teams are ranked 13-16.

With this in mind, let's move to the Euro qualifiers. 7 groups of 5 teams, 3 groups of 6 teams. The first two of each group are qualified. So, 10 groups, top two teams qualify. Plus Germany (the hosts), we have 21 qualified teams already
