Back in early December, 32 teams were named to eight separate groups (recognized as A through H), consisting of four teams each. Every team in the tournament is allowed a 23-man roster, as 11 players for each team (including a goalkeeper) are on the field at any given time.
All four teams in each group will play each other once in the opening round of the World Cup, with teams earning three points for a win, one point for a tie and no points for a loss. The two teams with the most points in each group will advance to a knockout stage, which will follow the same format throughout the rest of the cup.
If teams are tied in points after playing each of their grouped opponents, the higher rank is awarded the winner of the game between said teams. If neither team won that match, advancement is determined by goal differential.
