Fair play points would have been used as tiebreakers if the overall and head-to-head records of teams were tied. These were calculated based on yellow and red cards received in all group matches as follows:^[3]

first yellow card: minus 1 point;
indirect red card (second yellow card): minus 3 points;
direct red card: minus 4 points;
yellow card and direct red card: minus 5 points;

Only one of the above deductions were applied to a player in a single match.

Team	Match 1	Match 2	Match 3	Points
Team				Points
Bermuda	1	2	1	−4
Costa Rica	1	2	2	−5
Haiti	1	4		−5
Nicaragua	1	2	2	−5
