The FIFA disciplinary code, the doping control regulations for FIFA competitions and other FIFA directives, as well as the IOC antidoping rules, apply to the football tournaments. Tiebreak rules Group stage ranking: Group stage matches will be evaluated as follows: • Each match won = three points • Each match drawn = one point for each team • Each match lost = zero points Ranking within a group (during the group and after all group matches): a) greatest number of points obtained in all group matches b) goal difference in all group matches c) greatest number of goals scored in all group matches If two or more teams are equal on the basis of the above three criteria, their rankings shall be determined as follows: d) greatest number of points obtained in the group matches between the teams concerned e) goal difference resulting from the group matches between the teams concerned f) greater number of goals scored in all group matches between the teams concerned g) the goals scored away from home count double between the teams concerned (if the tie is only between two teams) h) greatest number of points obtained in the fair play conduct of the teams based on yellow and red cards received in all group matches as follows: - First yellow card = minus 1 point - Second yellow card/indirect red card = minus 3 points - Direct red card = minus 4 points - Yellow card and direct red card = minus 5 points (Only one of the above deductions shall be applied to a player in a single match.) i) drawing of lots by FIFA. In the event of a tournament being played in one of the countries of the participating member associations or on neutral territory, if two or more teams are equal after the completion of the group stage, the final rankings will be determined by a drawing of lots by FIFA. With the approval of the FIFA Organising Committee and should the international match calendar allow, play-offs may be played instead of drawing lots to decide ties within groups. If such play-off ends in a tie, extra time of two periods of 15 minutes each shall be played. If the score is level after extra time, kicks from the penalty mark shall be taken to determine the winner, in accordance with the procedure described in the laws of the game. Exceptionally and with the prior approval of FIFA, such play-off match may also be held in one of the countries concerned. FBL------------------------------_02A Report Created THU 1 JUL 2021 09:30 Page 2 of 3 Football サッカー / Football Should the best second or third placed team within a group stage qualify for the next stage or for the final competition, the criteria to decide such best second or third placed team shall depend on the competition format and shall require the approval of FIFA following proposals from the confederations. In the knockout format, both teams shall play one home and one away match each, the sequence of which shall be determined by lots drawn by FIFA. The team having scored most goals over the two games shall qualify for the next round. If both teams score the same number of goals over the two matches, the goals scored away shall be counted as double. If the number of away goals is also equal or both matches end without any goals being scored, extra time of two periods of 15 minutes each shall be played at the end of the second leg. The extra time period is an integral part of the second leg match. Thus, if no goals are scored in extra time, or if the score is level after extra time, kicks from the penalty mark shall be taken to determine the winner. If both teams score the same number of goals in the extra time period, the visiting team is declared winner on the basis of away goals counting double. Match description The main objective of football is to score more goals than the opponent in order to win the match. Football is played by two teams of 11 players each: one goalkeeper and 10 outfield players. Each team tries to score in the opponent's goal and to prevent the other team from scoring. The ball may be passed, tapped, rolled or dribbled in any direction using the feet predominantly but actually any part of the body other than the arms and hands, as well as thrown from the touchline in the case of a throw-in. All actions are subject to the competition regulations and the laws of the game.
