Win = 3 points · Tie = 1 · Loss = 0. If teams are level on points after pool play, seeding is decided by the steps below, in order — the first one that separates them settles it.
Head-to-head — who won the pool game between the tied teams, if they played. Used when exactly two teams are tied; with three or more level, this step is skipped.
Goal differential — goals scored minus goals allowed across all pool games.
Fewest goals allowed — the team that gave up the fewest goals across all pool games.
Most goals scored — the team that scored the most goals across all pool games.
PK shootout — three players per team alternate penalty kicks; if still level, the same three continue in sudden death until one team scores unanswered.
