Clarifying UEFA Champions League tie-breakers

Since the user didn't give specifics, I'll ask for details. I want to provide clear tie-break rules for the UEFA Champions League, including head-to-head points and goal differences. I need to remember updates since 2021; specifically, the away goals rule is abolished now. For the 2023-24 season, the official rules outline priority: head-to-head points, goal difference, goals scored, and if needed, overall goal difference and more. I’ll ensure to clarify this for the user!Clarifying tie-breaker steps

If more than two teams are tied and steps 1-3 still leave teams tied, I'll reapply those criteria just to the subset that remains tied. After that, we look at the overall goal difference and total goals scored in all group matches. It's important to note that the away goals rule is no longer a tie-breaker at all. In the UEFA Champions League, away goals scored overall aren't counted, so I'll make sure to clarify this.Reviewing tie-breaker criteria

I’m assessing the tie-breakers for the UCL 2023-24 group stage. I see that, after the goals scored overall, they check for the number of wins in group matches. Previously, away wins were counted but with the away goals rule abolished, those were removed too. The criteria order includes looking at points, goal differences, and goals scored among the teams in question. If teams are still tied after that, I can reapply the first three criteria just to those teams.Examining further tie-breaker rules

If the previous criteria don’t resolve the tie, I need to consider criteria 5 to 11, which include overall goal difference, total goals scored, and disciplinary points. However, I think away goals and away wins have likely been removed from the criteria. It's important for me to clarify that specifics can vary. To keep it simple, I should mention that head-to-head results come first, followed by overall goal differences, goals scored, and disciplinary points. Also, I should note that the CL is changing to the Swiss format starting in the 2024-25 season.Requesting clarification on UCL season

Starting from the 2024-25 season, the Champions League changes to a Swiss-system league phase with 36 teams and eight matches each, eliminating group stages. The user mentioned "小组晋级," which suggests they might be referring to a past season. I should clarify which season they mean.

I can offer a brief analysis of various scenarios depending on the season, such as tie-breakers, qualification thresholds, and how to interpret standings quickly. I’ll prepare this in Chinese as well.
