Spain
Germany beat Spain by 2 goals to 1.
Spain beat New Zealand by 4 goal to 0.
Let total number of teams participated in tournament is n + 10
There are 10 terms in the bottom group then n teams in the top group. It is given that the bottom group gets 45 points since we have 1 point per match therefore 45 matches playing amongst themselves. Therefore they should get 45 points from their matches against the top group i.e., 45 out of the 10n points. The top group get nC2 points from the matches among themselves. They also get 10n - 45 points against the bottom group, which is half their total points.
Hence nC2 = 10n - 45 or n(n + 1) = 20n - 90 or n2 - 21n + 90 = 0 hence n = 6 or 15
If n = 6, the top ground would get nC2 + 10n - 45 = nC2 + 10(6) - 45 = 30 points, or an average of 5 points per team, while the bottom group would get (45 + 45) / 10 or an average of 9. This is not possible.
Hence n = 15. Then total number of teams is 10 + 15 = 25.
From the discussion above we can say that. It is possible that the winner will have the same number of wins in the entire tournament as a team eliminated at the end of the first stage.
Since there are 8 teams and we know that 8 = 23 hence there are 3 rounds in 2nd stage.
