- highest goal difference in all group matches;
- highest number of scored goals in all group matches;
- lowest average age of all players fielded in all group matches (sum of the ages of all fielded players divided by the number of fielded players).
In all other rounds, teams tied at the end of regular time contest a penalty shootout to determine the winner. No extra-time is played.
