Squads
Teams had to name a 21-man squad (three of whom must be goalkeepers) by the FIFA deadline.
Draw
The final draw for group stage was held on 26 August 2013 in Abu Dhabi at the Bab Al Bahr Hotel at 19:00 (local time).
Prior to the draw, FIFA announced that as host, the United Arab Emirates would be placed as 'A1', to assist with ticket sales. The continental champions of the confederations AFC, CAF, CONCACAF, CONMEBOL, and UEFA are assigned to the other five groups. Teams from the same confederation cannot be drawn against each other at the group stage.
| Pot 1 | Pot 2 | Pot 3 | Pot 4 |
|---|---|---|---|
| United Arab Emirates (assigned to Group A) | Argentina (assigned to Group E) | Canada | Austria |
Logo and tickets
The logo of the competition was unveiled on 5 March 2013, including the local organising committee asking Omar Abdulrahman to be a 'brand ambassador' for this event.
'Stadium package' tickets for the Tournament went on sale on 26 June, with the ability to buy tickets per match once the draw has been made.
A falcon known as 'Shaqran' will be the mascot for the World Cup, after being introduced to local journalists on 13 May .
Group stage
The winners and runners-up from each group, as well as the best four third-placed teams, qualified for the first round of the knockout stage (round of 16).
The ranking of each team in each group is determined as follows:
- points obtained in all group matches;
- goal difference in all group matches;
- number of goals scored in all group matches;
If two or more teams are equal on the basis of the above three criteria, their rankings are determined as follows:
- points obtained in the group matches between the teams concerned;
- goal difference in the group matches between the teams concerned;
- number of goals scored in the group matches between the teams concerned;
- drawing of lots by the FIFA Organising Committee.
All times are local, UTC+04:00.
