Thanks to PSG, France almost assured of 5th place in the UEFA index. If PSV Eindhoven lost and failed to reach the quarter-finals of the Champions League on March 13 against Dortmund, the ranking would change.
With 64,331 points in the ranking, France is ahead of the Netherlands this year, which has 61,100 points. However, the Dutch were on top at the start of the year. But the good performances of Lille, Rennes, Toulouse, Lens, Marseille and PSG in the various European cups allowed the French clubs to gain the upper hand.
