Right OK. Final games are played, and with two groups only featuring 3 teams, I think it means that Group A's result against bottom placed team won't be counted for the best runners up place. So we have. Group A Winners: Tunisia Group B Winners: Iraq Group C Winners: Yemen Best runner up: Morocco on goal difference from Saudi Arabia and more points than Mauritania.
