Group phase edit

The 24 teams were drawn into eight pools of three. In each pool, teams played against each other once in a round-robin format. The pool winners and runners-up advanced to the round of 16. Pools D, E, F, and G were played in Barcelona, Spain, from 11 to 13 October 2013 and the other pools were played in Lille, France, from 25 to 27 October 2013. If a game was won, the winning team received five points. A draw resulted in both teams receiving two points. A loss gave the losing team one point unless the losing team lost by three or more goals, then they received zero points.
