Considering data limitations

I need to be cautious about relying on live data since my cutoff is in October 2024, while the Europa League will be ongoing at that time. The user probably wants the current standings or fixtures related to "胜负形势." I could ask clarifying questions about which season and current standings they’re interested in. Alternatively, I can provide a generic explanation about permutations and tiebreakers. If network access is allowed, I might fetch the data. But I have to keep in mind my limitations as an AI.Exploring data retrieval options

I can try to fetch the current standings from sources like UEFA or Wikipedia, but writing a robust scraper feels a bit heavy. Also, I need to consider language since the user mentioned Chinese. The CLI harness allows shell commands, but I should summarize my findings rather than just dumping outputs. Since the user's message is brief, they might be looking for a general analysis. I think I should clarify which group and current points they want, or if they prefer I fetch the latest data from UEFA. This way, I cover their needs effectively.Clarifying UEFA format changes

I just remembered that UEFA changed the Champions League group stage format to a Swiss-style league phase starting in 2024-25. I believe the same goes for the Europa League, so the term "小组赛" may be outdated. Instead, from 2024-25, we'll have a "联赛阶段" with 36 teams, where each plays 8 games against different opponents. If the user refers to 小组赛, they might be talking about past seasons. The new setup affects permutations and tiebreakers, too; it seems I should confirm the details for those.Reviewing tiebreaker details

For the new Champions League format, the tiebreakers start with total points. If teams are tied, they seem to use goal difference and goals scored, but I'm unsure about whether away goals or wins come into play. It appears that head-to-head results aren't used since not all teams have faced each other yet. I need to be careful not to list incorrect tiebreakers. The user's mention of "欧联杯小组赛" points to the old format, suggesting they might mean seasons before 2024-25. By the way, Manchester United isn't in the Europa League group stage for 2023-24; they are in the Champions League.Reviewing Europa League tiebreakers and formats

In the 2022-23 season, Manchester United was in Europa League group E and finished tied on points with Real Sociedad, losing in head-to-head results but with their overall goal difference playing a crucial role. However, UEFA has specific tiebreaker rules that I'm struggling to recall fully. Given my uncertainty, it might be best to ask the user for specific details, such as the season and current standings. I can provide guidance based on both the old group format and the new league phase starting in 2024-25. I’ll summarize my approach clearly and concisely.
