[edit] Player eligibility

To be eligible to play, A player must be born on or after January 1, 1992.

[edit] Venues

FIFA chose eight venues out of nine possible locations.[2][3][4]

On 21 May 2009, FIFA gave Nigeria a 'Yellow Card' as FIFA noted a significant delay in the preparations for the tournament.[5] While Abuja and Lagos were ready, FIFA Vice-President Jack Warner gave four other venues (Enugu, Calabar, Ijebu-Ode and Kano) a month to get 100% ready or the tournament would be moved. One potential venue (Warri) was removed after recent violence flared up in the Niger Delta.

[edit] Threats to the Tournament

The 2009 edition was under increasing threats from the armed rebel group, The Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND) and warned FIFA against hosting the tournament in Nigeria.[6] However, the militants were offered amnesty in exchange for laying down their weapons, and the tournament went on smoothly without any incidents.

[edit] Teams

The group draw was held on August 7, 2009 at the International Conference Centre in Abuja[7] [8]

[edit] Ranking of third-placed teams

Group Team Pld W D L GF GA GD FP Pts
A  Germany 3 1 1 1 7 6 +1 −7 4
F  Uruguay 3 1 1 1 3 3 0 −3 4
D  New Zealand 3 0 3 0 3 3 0 −3 3

B  Brazil 3 1 0 2 3 4 −1 −6 3
C  Netherlands 3 1 0 2 3 4 −1 −6 3

The 4 best 3rd place teams qualify for the knockout stage. The first determining factor is points, the second is goal difference, and the third is the number of goals scored. If teams are still level, then Fair-Play ranking is used as the fourth criterium. This ranking is as follows: -1 for yellow card, -3 for a red card (straight or 2 yellows in the same game), -4 in case of a yellow card followed by a straight red card in the same game. If the teams are still level at this point, a drawing of lots determine the qualified team(s).

  • Germany, Uruguay, New Zealand and the United Arab Emirates advance to the knockout stage
  • Brazil and Netherlands have been eliminated
