To make it easier to understand, these results would put Greece out:
Russia 1 - 0 Greece
(Greece finish with 4pts, an equal goal difference with 3 goals to their name)
Spain 2 - 3 Portugal
(Spain also finish with 4pts and an equal goal difference but with 4 goals to their name).
What would happen if Russia won 1-0 but Portugal won 2-1? Spain and Greece would have same points, same goal difference, and same goals scored, plus they drew against each other. How would they decide who takes second place?
