The 2022 UEFA Women's Futsal Championship, also referred to as UEFA Women's Futsal Euro 2022, was the second edition of the UEFA Women's Futsal Championship, the biennial international futsal championship organised by UEFA for the women's national teams of Europe.

Contents

The final tournament of this edition would originally be held in February 2021, with the qualifying rounds originally taking place in 2020. However, on 17 June 2020, UEFA announced that the final tournament had been postponed to March 2022, with the qualifying rounds postponed to 2021, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. [2] [3] The tournament was again later rescheduled for July 2022 in the same venue previously chosen, Gondomar, Portugal. [1] Spain were the defending champions [4] and they successfully defended their title beating Portugal for a second time 3–3 (1–4 in penalties). [5]

Teams

A total of 24 (out of 55) UEFA member national teams entered the qualifying stage, with Gibraltar and Bosnia and Herzegovina making their debuts. [6] Based on their coefficient ranking, calculated based on results in the 2019 edition, [7] the 13 highest-ranked teams entered the main round, while the 11 lowest-ranked teams entered the preliminary round. [8] The coefficient ranking was also used for seeding in the preliminary round and main round draws, where each team was assigned a seeding position according to their ranking for the respective draw. Three teams were pre-selected as hosts for the preliminary round and four teams were pre-selected as hosts for the main round.

The draws for the preliminary round and main round was held on 13 February 2020, 13:30 CEST (UTC+2), at the UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland. [6] The mechanism of the draws for each round was as follows:

Notes

Format

In the preliminary round and main round, each group is played as a round-robin mini-tournament at the pre-selected hosts.

In the final tournament, the four qualified teams play in knockout format (semi-finals, third place match, and final), either at a host selected by UEFA from one of the teams, or at a neutral venue.

Tiebreakers

In the preliminary round and main round, teams are ranked according to points (3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw, 0 points for a loss), and if tied on points, the following tiebreaking criteria are applied, in the order given, to determine the rankings (Regulations Articles 14.01 and 14.02): [8]

  1. Points in head-to-head matches among tied teams;
  2. Goal difference in head-to-head matches among tied teams;
  3. Goals scored in head-to-head matches among tied teams;
  4. If more than two teams are tied, and after applying all head-to-head criteria above, a subset of teams are still tied, all head-to-head criteria above are reapplied exclusively to this subset of teams;
  5. Goal difference in all group matches;
  6. Goals scored in all group matches;
  7. Penalty shoot-out if only two teams have the same number of points, and they met in the last round of the group and are tied after applying all criteria above (not used if more than two teams have the same number of points, or if their rankings are not relevant for qualification for the next stage);
  8. Disciplinary points (red card = 3 points, yellow card = 1 point, expulsion for two yellow cards in one match = 3 points);
  9. UEFA coefficient ranking;
  10. Drawing of lots.
