Competition Format
Twelve qualified nations were drawn into two groups, each consisting of six teams. Each game result merits a corresponding point:
| Result | Points |
|---|---|
| Win | 2 |
| Draw | 1 |
| Loss | 0 |
The teams with the two highest points qualified for the knockout stage, which was a single-elimination tournament. The semifinal winners contested for the gold medal, while the losers played for the bronze medal.

Famous quotes containing the word competition:
“So long as the system of competition in the production and exchange of the means of life goes on, the degradation of the arts will go on; and if that system is to last for ever, then art is doomed, and will surely die; that is to say, civilization will die.”
—William Morris (18341896)
