Qualifying for the UEFA Euro 2000 final tournament, took place throughout 1998 and 1999. Forty-nine teams were divided into nine groups. All teams played against each other, within their groups, in a home-and-away basis. The winner of each group and the best runner-up qualified automatically for the final tournament. The rest of the runners-up played an additional set of playoff matches amongst each other. Belgium and the Netherlands qualified automatically as co-hosts of the event. ==Qualification seeding== The draw was made on 18 January 1998, in Ghent, Belgium. Germany were seeded first as holders. The other seedings were determined by points per game in the qualifiers for 1996 European Championship and the 1998 World Cup. Other points to note: *France did not have to qualify for the 1998 FIFA World Cup as hosts. Only their record in UEFA Euro 1996 qualifying was used. *England did not have to qualify for UEFA Euro 1996 as hosts. Only their record in World Cup 1998 was used. *Bosnia and Herzegovina had never competed in the European Championships, so only their World Cup record was used. *FR Yugoslavia were banned from UEFA Euro 1996, so only their World Cup record was used. *This was the first qualifying competition for Andorra. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「UEFA Euro 2000 qualifying」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
