How the best third ranked team qualifies for the EHF EURO 2014
The EHF Executive agreed in its meeting in January 2012 that as well as the first two teams from each of the seven qualification groups, also the best third ranked team from all seven groups will qualify for the Men's EHF EURO 2014 in Denmark.
This team is determined the following way:
After the conclusion of all qualification matches in the seven groups on 16 June, a ranking of the teams ranked third in each group (overall seven teams) will be established.
This ranking will include only the results of those four matches the third ranked team played against the teams ranked first and second in the group.
Matches against the teams ranked fourth in group will not be considered.
The best team from this ranking of the third ranked teams will qualify for the Men's EHF EURO 2014 in Denmark.
