Europe through the back-door: Hertha Sporting director Dieter Hoeneß and head coach Lucien Favre are delighted
The official fairplay rankings
bundesliga.de presents the complete national fairplay rankings that helped winners Hertha BSC gain a place in next season's UEFA Cup.
The club from the capital city are allowed to enter the first qualifying round for the UEFA Cup after leading the Bundesliga fairplay rankings after 34 matchdays. The rankings are based on bookings, sending-offs and the evaluation of the DFB referee managers.
The fairplay rankings offer a way into European competition for the fairest team of the Bundesliga. Therefore the DFB referee managers register the sporting behaviour of teams and fans, dealing with the opposing team and the behaviour of team officials. There's a maximum score for each match, which is reduced by bookings and sending-offs.
What is assessed?
The following criteria are part of the evaluation:
Regulations
If the winner of the Bundesliga fairplay rankings should be already qualified for Europe through the league or the DFB Cup, the second-best club from the fairplay rankings will enter the UEFA Cup qualifying round.
If the winner of the Bundesliga fairplay rankings should have qualified for the UEFA Intertoto Cup (UIC), the team will enter the UEFA Cup qualifying round, with the Bundesliga team coming seventh taking the place in the UIC.
