Fifth[edit]

As there was only three teams from Pool B as opposed to the four from Pool A, the third-placed team from Pool A ( Ecuador) had no equivalent to play against. Thus the Ecuadorians were automatically allocated fifth place.

6th to 7th play-offs[edit]

The last-placed teams from each pool were drawn in head-to-head rounds to find the sixth and seventh placed teams.
