There are five big domestic leagues in Europe; the Premier League, Bundesliga, LaLiga, Serie A, and Ligue1. These leagues often produce the finalist in Europe's most coveted club competition, the UEFA Champions League. The competition is the summit of world club football. For the clubs that participate in it, they do not only get to enjoy financial incentives but also the status of being a top European club not to mention the global acknowledgment that comes with that. Players also get to boast and have the prestige of having played with the very best of world football giving them a high personal accolade. 

The English Premier League is proving to be the best domestic league in the world as for the last 7 years there has been at least one English team in the UCL semi-finals.  In the past three seasons alone, three of the final four clubs remaining in the competition have come from the EPL. Two of the past three finals have seen an all-English affair with Liverpool taking on Tottenham where the Reds emerged victorious and Chelsea taking on Manchester City with the Blues clinching the win. As things stand in this season's campaign, we might be headed for another all-English final if things stand as they are right now. The first semi-final saw Manchester City see off Real Madrid 4-3 while the second one had Liverpool enjoying a 2-0 win over Villarreal. 

If things remain as they are in the second leg ties of the semifinal fixtures, then Manchester City and Liverpool will square it out one more time for European glory at the Stade de France which is the stadium for the French national football team. The English clubs are not the only ones who are flourishing in the football world as the English national team has not also been left behind. During the 2018 World Cup, they reached the semi-final stage where they were surprisingly eliminated by eventual runners-up, Croatia. In the Euro 2020 tournament, they fought their way to the final where they succumbed to Italy in the penalty shootouts. The English national team is currently ranked among the favorites to clinch the World Cup trophy in Qatar come December. If Liverpool and Manchester City who are currently the two horses in the race to clinch the EPL manage to find their way into the UCL final, then they would have proved a quality of greatness in the EPL.
