Discipline

edit

Fair play points would have been used as tiebreakers in the group if the overall and head-to-head records of teams were tied, or if teams had the same record in the ranking of third-placed teams. These were calculated based on yellow and red cards received in all group matches as follows:[5]

  • yellow card = 1 point
  • red card as a result of two yellow cards = 3 points
  • direct red card = 3 points
  • yellow card followed by direct red card = 4 points
Team Match 1 Match 2 Points
                       
  Fiji 1 –1
  New Caledonia 2 1 –3
  Solomon Islands 1 1 –2
