Tiebreakers

To settle a tie between two teams, the head-to-head result is used.

In the event of a tiebreaker between three teams, the following steps are used:

1) Calculate only the results of the games between the teams that are tied in a mini-league table.
2) In the event that there are still teams tied after step one, then point difference will be used to determine the placings, taking into account only the results of the games between the teams still tied. A column has been added to Group 1 and Group 2 to show this.
