Also, here is the competition formula:

The top four teams from each pool will advance to the second round featuring two pools of eight teams (the top teams from Pools A and D in one group, and the top teams from Pools C and B in the other).
– The top three teams in each of the two second-round pools will advance to the third round. The two second-round pool winners will be placed in different third round pools with the second and third-placed teams drawn.
– The round will consist of a round-robin system with the top two teams in each pool advancing to the semifinals. A 5th rank match will take place on the same day as the semifinals. The 103rd and last match of the tournament will be the final.
