Fifth

[edit]

As there was only four teams from Pool A as opposed to the five from Pool B, the third-placed team from Pool B ( South Korea) had no equivalent to play against. Thus the South Koreans were automatically allocated fifth place.

Relegation play-offs

[edit]

The last and second-to-last placed teams of each pool were placed against each other in two head-to-head rounds. The losing team of the rounds were relegated to Group II for next year.
