Hey, I've got a question. How exactly does it come about which team goes into the next round (you know, points and stuff)? |
The two teams with the most points after the 3 group games will go through into the next round. You generally need 5 points to qualify for the next round, but sometimes you can get away with 4, and for a team to go out with 6 points, that would be unlucky. If two teams are level then it comes to goal difference or goals scored. I'm not sure which one they are using at the world cup, but i should think it would be goal difference.
