Pools D, E, F, and G were played in Barcelona, Spain, from 11 to 13 October 2013 and the other pools were played in Lille, France, from 25 to 27 October 2013. If a game was won, the winning team received five points. A draw resulted in both teams receiving two points. A loss gave the losing team one point unless the losing team lost by three or more goals, then they received zero points.
