mode

The eight teams played in their group each against each other for the placement. The best score, then the direct comparison and only then the goal difference was decisive for the placement.

Finally, there were placement games, in which the teams of the two groups of equal rank met each other.

Since FIFA classified the games as “ friendly ”, each team was allowed to make six substitutions per game. The games against the B teams were not counted by FIFA and are therefore not included in the FIFA world ranking .
