There is a benefit for two seasons before and after the Champions League expansion. I have enjoyed all four major leagues, but Ligue 1 has not yet

Ligue 1 ranks at the end of the five major leagues, and you can use a hundred methods to prove this conclusion. Whether it is overall competitiveness or team performance, Ligue 1 is not on the same level as the four major leagues. Take the Champions League with the most weight for example. La Liga, Premier League, Serie A, and Bundesliga not only have a large number of championships, but also have exclusive representative teams. La Liga is Real Madrid, Premier League is Liverpool, Serie A is Milan, and Bundesliga is Bayern.

So, who can tell me who is Ligue 1?

In fact, compared with the four major leagues, it is a bit beyond the scope for Ligue 1. Even the Dutch Eredivisie and the Portuguese Super League are more confident than the Ligue 1 at the Champions League level.

This season, Paris Saint-Germain reached the Champions League final, which is a breath for Ligue 1. However, this is far from enough. Even if Paris Saint-Germain wins the championship, it will not be able to make Ligue 1 truly worthy of the position of one of the five major leagues in the context of the Champions League.

As stated at the beginning, there are a hundred ways to prove that Ligue 1 is at the end of the five major leagues. There are different ways at different times. This season, the Champions League ushered in another node of reform. First, the scale has expanded again after the 1990s to 2000s. Secondly, the competition system has undergone tremendous changes. The classic group stage was cancelled and changed to a powerful melee of 36. In the new era, the Champions League eliminated Ligue 1 and found a new way.

The two seasons before and after the Champions League expansion, a new benefit was born. In the past two years, I have enjoyed La Liga, Premier League, Serie A and Bundesliga, but Ligue 1 has not.

Let's start with Villarreal. Huang Qiang overturned Barcelona away. Barcelona may be a bit slacking off when winning the championship early, but Huang Qian is also stress-free. It can be said that this is a pure game. Before this, Huang Qian had already won the thing they cared about the most - the Champions League seat.

Huang Qian locked in La Liga fifth and could he get a Champions League place? Yes, this is the new era. The benefits given to major leagues by the Champions League - the top two European points in the league, and next season, you can add a UEFA Champions League place on the original basis.

This benefit is not only for the five major leagues, but all leagues in Europe are potential recipients. But it depends on who has the ability to get it. Objectively speaking, only those leagues with strong overall strength and large quotas will have the opportunity to obtain this benefit. The

23 to 24 seasons are the last year of the implementation of the old competition system, but this benefit has entered the preparation stage for distribution. In the end, the Bundesliga and Serie A both won one more place in the Champions League due to their better overall performance in the three major cups and more points.

This season, La Liga and Premier League are stronger in the three major cups, and have established their advantage in the top two points in the European Games early on. Therefore, next season, La Liga and Premier League will each have 5 seats.

The previous season of the expansion and the first season after the expansion, this place +1 benefit was enjoyed in La Liga Premier League Serie A Bundesliga, leaving only the Ligue 1, feeling sad in the corner.

The five major leagues that were agreed to go hand in hand? Why do I only see four running in front and one running in the back and I can’t catch up?

In fact, the quota of Ligue 1 is already less than the four major leagues, and they are 3.5, and even if one is added, it is still 4.5. It is not enough to rely on one or two top wealthy families for this benefit. Look at La Liga, Real Madrid and Barcelona support the Champions League, but we cannot ignore the Athletic Bilbao of the Europa League and the Real Betis of the Europa League. Although Paris Saint-Germain is strong this season, overall, as representatives of Ligue 1, they are still unable to support themselves.

In the future, if you want to get this benefit, you have to rely on the little brothers Monaco, Nice, Marseille, and Lyon to build the European energy barrier of Ligue 1 with your big brother Paris Saint-Germany to fight against the four major leagues. To be honest, this is very difficult.
