Lazio, the defending champions, and Parma finished third and fourth respectively, to enter the third qualifying round of the same competition. Internazionale and Milan finished fifth and sixth respectively, and qualified for the 2001–02 UEFA Cup along with Fiorentina, the winners of the Coppa Italia. Brescia gained entry into the 2001 UEFA Intertoto Cup. Vicenza, Napoli and Bari were automatically relegated to Serie B. Reggina and Hellas Verona were forced to contest a relegation tie-breaker after finishing level on points, with Verona winning on away goals to relegate Reggina. Rule changes In the middle of the season, the old quota system was abolished, meaning that each team was no longer limited to having no more than five non-EU players and using no more than three in each match.http://www.uefa.com/memberassociations/association=ita/news/newsid=28321.html https://web.archive.org/web/20110604164248/http://www.uefa.com/memberassociations/association=ita/news/newsid=28321.html dead June 4, 2011 Italians bar non-EU imports 2002-07-17 2010-03-09 UEFAhttps://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/europe/1005793.stm Milan challenge non-EU rule 2000-11-03 2010-03-09 BBC Sport Passport scandal Concurrent with the abolition of the quota system, the Italian Football Federation (FIGC) investigated footballers from South America and Cameroon who had used fake passports in order to enable their teams to field them as Europeans.
