In the first stage, the teams are ranked according to points (3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw, 0 points for a loss). If tied on points, tiebreakers are applied in the following order (Regulations Article 18.1):[6]
- Goal difference;
- Goals scored;
- Head-to-head result in games between tied teams;
- Drawing of lots.
The top two teams of each group advance to the final stage.
On 11 March 2018, the scheduled Group A match between Argentina and Ecuador was not played as players from several teams showed symptoms for food poisoning. The scheduled Group B matches on 12 March 2018 were also postponed as a result.[7] The matches were rescheduled by CONMEBOL with the first stage ending on 18 March instead of 16 March, and the final stage starting on 21 March instead of 19 March.[8][9]
All times are local, ART (UTC−3).[10]
