①Goal difference for all matches (= total goals scored - total goals conceded)
②Total goals scored for all matches
③Head-to-head record (wins and losses) between the two teams
④Draw (conducted in the presence of representatives from both teams)

①Total points for all matches
②Goal difference for all matches (=total goals scored - total goals conceded)
