Results

[edit]
  • Winning teams are highlighted in bold.
  • Teams with green scores (winners) returned in the next round, while those with red scores (losers) were eliminated (as it was impossible for them to be in the highest scoring losers).
  • Teams with orange scores had to win one more match to return in the next round.
  • Teams with yellow scores indicate that two further matches had to be played and won (teams that lost their first quarter-final match).
  • Teams with white scores may progress to the next round depending on the results of further matches in which they are not playing.
  • A score in italics indicates a match decided on a tie-breaker question.
