UEFA announce major Champions League-style shake-up to 2030 World Cup qualifiers - meaning England will not face ANY minnows like San Marino or Andorra

UEFA has announced a major overhaul of its World Cup qualifying format, restructuring the competition in a Champions League-style system ahead of the 2030 World Cup. The change will prevent top nations like England from being drawn against smaller minnow teams such as San Marino and Andorra in the qualifying rounds. The shake-up represents a significant departure from the traditional qualifying group stage format used in previous World Cup cycles.
