EFA eFootball Qualification 2026: Groups, Results and Playoffs

Competition update · Checked 14 September 2026 · eFootball

EFA qualification has reached a four-player semi-final field in its published bracket. Here are the recorded quarter-final results, the group tables and the exact links to follow what happens next.

The EFA Qualification Tournament is listed on EasyChamp as an eFootball competition. Its public site carries group-stage tables and a separate 16-entrant playoff bracket. Entries are player names and gamertags; this is a different competition from the 11v11 EA FC Nations League covered elsewhere on this blog.

Watch the 56-second knockout review

A penalty shootout, a series comeback and 110 completed passes from 129 attempts. Original player uploads show the evidence; August’s group-draw excerpt shows where the competition began.

The quarter-finals: four recorded results

Quarter-final	Recorded result	Match page
visionx17 vs orighidon9	1–2	Open match
LesterRMMS vs armin_80_77_90093	2–0	Open match
erfan_playstyle vs hakobyan_7	2–0	Open match
vanguard_yousef vs xxxspeedy999xxx	0–2	Open match

Semifinal update, 14 September: the platform pairs orighidon9 with LesterRMMS, and erfan_playstyle with xxxspeedy999xxx. The organizer’s September 12 Discord schedule instead pairs XXXSPEEDY999XXX with LesterRMMS, and orighidon9 with Vanguard_Erfan. These sources disagree; treat the pairings as awaiting reconciliation. Both public semifinal records remain unscored. No champion is announced here.

The tournament header says “Completed,” but its semi-final records have no scores and the final is undecided. This update follows the individual match records rather than treating that header as proof of a winner. The organizer’s September 7 rules confirm best-of-three playoffs, with extra time and penalties enabled. Scores in the table are series wins, not individual game goals.

Group stage: eight tables, then a separate playoff

The published group stage has eight groups and 47 current entrant entries: six in each group except Group B, which has five. The stored group phase includes 230 fixture records. Those are current platform counts, not a claim that 230 matches have all been played or that the original registration count was 47.

Group A provides a concrete example of how to read the table. genci45 leads with 27 points from ten recorded games, ahead of whysoserious0222 on 24 points. The playoff is a new stage: genci45’s round-of-16 record is a 1–2 defeat to visionx17. Leading a group and winning the knockout competition are different achievements.

Where to follow the competition

Use the EFA qualification website for the competition’s own public home. On EasyChamp Matchday, switch between Standings, Schedule and Bracket. Match links above open the specific quarter-finals.

An earlier EFA Europa League Qualification Tournament archive is also available. It is a separate competition; its results must not be mixed with this August–September bracket.

Original result uploads: the story behind the series scores

The organizer’s September 7 playoff rules specify best of three, extra time on, penalties on. The eSportsWorldTeam #results channel holds player-submitted game photos and match histories. Discord links may require server access; the original images below are also hosted here.

XXXSPEEDY999XXX: penalties, then a clean sheet

The 2–0 quarter-final series against Vanguard_Yousef began with a 2–2 extra-time draw, decided 4–3 on penalties. The second game finished 3–0. The player’s series report and match history support the same two-win result recorded on EasyChamp.

orighidon9: from one game down to a semifinal place

Against VisionX17, orighidon9’s uploaded history records a 1–2 opening loss, a 2–1 extra-time win and a 3–0 deciding win. That is a 2–1 series comeback. Read this screenshot from the bottom upward to follow the games chronologically.

Earlier round: 85.3% pass completion in HAKOBYAN_7’s 5–3 win

HAKOBYAN_7’s round-of-16 upload against Murad includes a 5–3 full-time screen: 110 successful passes from 129 attempts, 55% possession and nine shots on target from ten shots. Calculating 110 ÷ 129 × 100 gives 85.3% team pass completion. This is one team’s match statistic, not an individual avatar rating or a tournament-wide ranking. The accompanying result image records a separate 9–4 win; EasyChamp records the series 2–0.

Watch the original group draw

The archived video shows the group draw on EasyChamp, presented by Anton. The organizer shared EasyChamp’s EFA Qualification Tournament broadcast in August. Its description announces 48 players; the current platform contains 47 entrant records. Those are different dated counts. This broadcast predates September’s knockout games and is not footage of the quarter-finals above.

For more original footage, visit EasyChamp on YouTube. For current results, use the match links rather than an old registration announcement.
