MANCHESTER, England (AP) — The English Premier League has missed out on a bonus fifth Champions League place in next season’s revamped and expanded competition.
Borussia Dortmund’s 1-0 win against Paris Saint-Germain in their semifinal first leg on Wednesday confirmed Germany would join Italy in being granted an extra berth.
The fifth spots were based on performances from each country this season in the Champions League, Europa League and Europa Conference League and averaged out by UEFA.
Aston Villa was England’s only remaining team in Europe by advancing to the semifinals of the Conference League. But even if it goes on to win the competition, Villa cannot amass enough points for England to overtake Germany, which still has two teams in the Champions League and one in the Europa League.
Dortmund’s win took Germany’s average points total to 18.357. The most England could amass is 18.25.
