Notes

  1. ^ a b The Brazil v Denmark match, originally scheduled on 19 September was postponed to the following day due to Typhoon Wipha.[2] FIFA also delayed the China PR v New Zealand match, originally scheduled on 19 September. This was to allow for simultaneous kick-off times on the final matchday of the group, after it was confirmed that weather conditions would not affect the rescheduling.[3]
