Ranking of second-placed teams
In order to ensure equality when comparing the runners-up team of all the groups, the results of the matches between the runner-up team and the bottom-placed team (for Group C, D, E, I and J, which consist of four teams) or two sides from the bottom (for Group A, G and H, which consists of five teams) were considered null and void due to Groups B and F having only three teams participating in the qualifiers.[3]
The best runner-up teams among those ranked second in the groups were determined as follows:
- Greater number of points obtained from group matches
- Goal difference resulting from group matches
- Greater number of goals scored in group matches
- Fewer number of points calculated according to the number of yellow and red cards received by the team in the group matches
- Drawing of lots.
