7. Ranking list, group matches. The ranking lists are set based on the point score. The points are
awarded as follows:
Win 3 points, draw 1 point , and loss 0 points.
If two teams have an equal number of points, the decision is fi rstly based on the match result in
terms of direct comparison. If this match ended in a draw, the goal difference is the deciding factor.
If this is equal, the greater number of goals becomes the deciding factor. If this is also a draw, an
eleven or nine metre penalty shootout is carried out.

For three or more teams with equal scores, a special table from the direct comparison should be
made for them. For teams with equal scores, the goal difference from this special table is the initial
deciding factor. After this, the goal difference from the special table, and lastly, the number of scored
goals from the special table.
