Sorry if discussed but what happens if we draw 2-2 and USA draw 0-0?

 

Someone in the pub last night said it goes to drawing lots. Suppose theres no real fair way of deciding by shots/cards etc so could be true

Its correct mate.

 

The ranking of each team in each group will be determined as follows:

 

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 will 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) drawing of lots by the FIFA Organising Committee.

If they won a game each then E could be used to determine who had the aggregate win. But that would be E and F wouldn't be needed.

 

If England won 2-0 and lost 0-2 then E wouldn't apply. I think rule F is written badly, I believe it means ALL goals scored in ALL games (not just head to head).
