Posted - 02/20/2006 : 18:23:02 I was looking at the standings for the round robin and trying to forsee the quarterfinal matches based on what could happen tomorrow but what has me puzzled is what the tiebreaker is. Is it the result of the head-to-head match or goal differential? For example: Canada beats the Czechs while the Swiss tie with Italy, they would be level on points, Switzerland won the game between the two but Canada would have a much better goal differential; so who finishes second? In soccer, the result of the match is the first tie-breaker, but I can't seem to find any info regarding this anywhere.
