Calculate a football group table from match scores
A four-team group contains six matches because every team plays the other three teams once. Enter the team names and all six scores to calculate matches played, wins, draws, losses, goals for, goals against, goal difference and points.
The calculator sorts teams using points first, then goal difference and goals scored. These are common ranking steps and make the tool useful for testing qualification scenarios before or after a match.
How points are calculated
- Win: three points.
- Draw: one point for each team.
- Loss: zero points.
- Goal difference: goals scored minus goals conceded.
Important tiebreaker limitation
Official competitions can apply additional criteria when teams remain level, including head-to-head results, fair-play records or other tournament rules. This calculator deliberately stops after points, goal difference and goals scored. Use the organizer’s current regulations for an official qualification decision.
Useful scenarios
Try possible scores before the final group matches, calculate what a team needs to qualify, or use custom team names for a local league. The calculation is performed in your browser and no account is required.
This independent calculator is not an official competition table and is not affiliated with FIFA.
