Format

The tournament had two groups of four: an "Eastern" and a "Western" group. The groups were not played as a round-robin; rather, the winners of the first-round matches played each other in the second round, and the first-round losers also played each other in the second round. The two teams with two wins from the first two matches advanced to the final. For the other teams, positions in the final round were determined by their position in their group, with the following rules:[8]

In other words, though the team placing 1st (2 wins) in each group will be apparent, the determination of 2nd, 3rd (both teams: 1 win, 1 loss) and 4th place (2 losses) will be based on (a) points earned in the first two matches (2 for a win, 1 for a penalty kick loss, 0 for a regulation loss), (b) head-to-head result, and then (c) goal differential, and (d) goals scored.
