Qualification system from Europe
In Europe there are four qualification groups and teams will qualify for the Men´s WFC 2016 according to the following:
i) The two best teams from each qualification group and the two best 3rd placed teams will qualify.
ii) The calculation of the best 3rd teams will follow this order: 1. Average number of points 2. Average goal difference 3. Average scored goals 4. Lottery drawing. *
*Since the number of teams between the qualification groups differ, the group sizes will be equalised by removing the results from the matches against the lowest placed teams in the larger-sized group before comparing the average results.
