Two of the three final round of group stage matches finished as a no result because of rain.[8] Per the rules of the tournament, the matches were replayed on the final day of the competition, with the play-off round scrapped and used as a reserve day.[8] Therefore, the final league standings were used to determine the promotion and relegation places.[8]
