Medianews.az reports that the games in Groups G and H will start at the following times in Baku time:
Group G

Group H
04:00 Uruguay - Spain

The championship, held from June 11 in the USA, Canada, and Mexico, features 48 teams. The teams are divided into 12 groups. The top two teams in each group and the 8 best third-placed teams will earn a ticket to the round of 16.
When points are equal, the result of the match between the teams is taken as the main criterion. Other criteria are: goal difference, number of goals, fewest official warnings (yellow and red cards), and the team's position in the current FIFA ranking.
The group stage ends on June 28. The round of 16 is scheduled from June 28 to July 4, the round of 8 from July 4 to 7, the quarter-finals from July 9 to 12, semi-finals on July 14-15, and the third place match and final on July 19.
