Third-placed qualifiers

edit

At the end of the first stage, a comparison was made between the third placed teams from the seven groups of six teams. The one best third-placed teams advanced to the 2010 AFC U-16 Championship.

Because three group has one team fewer than the others, following the withdrawal of Sri Lanka, Mongolia and Maldives, matches against the sixth-placed team in each group are not included in this ranking. As a result, four matches played by each team will count for the purposes of the third-placed table.
