FIFA tie-breaker rules for Germany 2006 as seen on Livescore.com

(1) Goal difference in all the group matches.


(2) Greater number of goals scored in all the group matches.


(3) Greater number of points obtained in the matches between the teams in question.


(4) Goal difference resulting from the matches between the teams in question (if more than two teams finish equal after applying above criteria).


(5) Greater number of goals scored in the matches between the teams in question (if more than two teams finish equal after applying above criteria).


(6) A drawing of lots by the Organising Committee.

My question is why is there no head to head here?

questionable, but hypocrital?

anyway, I also think that the head-tohead should be the first criteria.

    Why use one criterion in qualifying and another in the actual event?
