Ranking of second-placed teams

Due to the difference of teams between the 3 groups, results of the matches against the last-placed team in each of the six-team groups would not be included in the ranking of the second-placed teams. As a result, only eight matches played by each team will be counted in the second-placed table (Regulations Article 10.1)[7].
