UEFA Nations League finals


UEFA Nations League 2018 Aleksander Ceferin
As mentioned, when matchday six has concluded, the Nations League then moves into the finals stage, which takes place in the summer of 2019.
Four teams - the winners of Groups 1-4 in League A - compete in two semi-finals (on June 5 and 6) with a third-place play-off and final following (on June 9).
This section of the tournament will be held in Portugal, pending a formal appointment by the UEFA Executive Committee at their meeting in Dublin on December 3. They had been joined by Italy and Poland as nations looking to host, but won the right to host by topping League A Group 3. 
The original bid proposed Porto's Estadio do Dragão and the Estadio D. Afonso Henriques in Guimaraes as host venues.

UEFA Nations League prize money


Every team that competes in the Nations League will receive solidarity payments from UEFA and bonus payments will be made to teams based on their performances.
UEFA announced in October that it would increase solidarity payments by 50 per cent and the higher the league, the better the payment, which you can see in the table below.
LeagueSolidarity paymentWinner's bonus
A€2.25m€2.25m
B€1.5m€1.5m
C€1.125m€1.125m
D€750,000€750,000
The teams that qualify for the Nations League final will also be rewarded for their performance at that stage.
The winner will receive a bonus of €6m, with the runner-up getting €4.5m. Third place will be paid €3.5m and the fourth-placed team will get €2.5m
As such, the maximum overall a team from League A can get is €10.5m; €3m for a team from League B; €2.25m for a team from League C; and €1.5m for a team from League D.

European Championship qualifying


As referred to above, the Nations League will also be linked with the European Championship, beginning with Euro 2020 .
First of all, the overall ranking of the teams in the Nations League will be used to determined the seeding for the Euro 2020 qualification groups, the draw for which will be held in Dublin in December 2018 following the conclusion of the group games, which, as noted, finish in November.
UEFA Nations League Euro 2020 qualifying
Secondly, the Nations League will also potentially offer a route into the European Championship for teams that fail to reach the tournament through the qualification process.
Each League from A to D has four play-off positions which will be given to the group winners as first priority. However if a group winner has already qualified its place in the play-off will go to the next best ranked team of the league and so on.
There will be four different play-off paths, meaning a total of 16 teams, and these will generally mirror the initial four leagues in terms of make-up. That means there will be opportunities for lower ranked teams to reach the European Championship finals.

UEFA Nations League ball


UEFA Nations League ball Adidas
A new ball has been produced specifically for the competition by Adidas and it will be used across the games in all leagues.
The design is similar in terms of panelling to the Adidas Telstar 18, which was used during the 2018 World Cup, but the colourway is totally different, as you'd expect.
The ball replicates the branding used by UEFA for their new competition, with various colours appearing in between white and silver panels.
