i think they mean, each country has a premiere league (where clubs play - clubs are like Mancester United, Chelsea, or AC Milan, etc).
UEFA is a tournament where the clubs from each nation go and compete.

Euro Cup is like World Cup but only for European countries. Players are from the nations and not from the club.
ah! so it's a national team vs. local teams thing
gotcha! :)

For everyone who kept dogging this World Cup regarding attendance and that the stadiums looked empty, this is for you:
quote:
The overall attendance at the World Cup was the third highest in history, behind the 1994 tournament in the United States and the last World Cup in Germany.
FIFA, world football's ruling body, said in a statement Monday that 3.18 million fans attended the 64 matches in South Africa. The average attendance was 49,670.
The '94 World Cup in the U.S. — where 3.59 million people watched games at the stadiums — still holds the record. In Germany four years ago, 3.36 million attended.
Organizers in South Africa acknowledged concerns over fan attendance leading up to the tournament before eventually agreeing to sell match tickets over the counter — a friendlier method for locals.
FIFA also said the average number of goals per game in South Africa was 2.27, down from 2.30 in Germany and 2.50 goals per game in Japan and South Korea in 2002.

the point is ball possession....the missed offside means a hell of a lot and everything after that missed call would have changed.
