how is the final stage of the South American Sub-20 organized?
During the group phase, the top three teams from each group advance. Those six qualifiers then meet in a single final round robin, where every team faces the others once. The squad with the most points at the end lifts the title and earns a coveted spot in the next stage of international play.
When teams are tied on points in the advancing positions, the tie-breaker sequence follows official competition rules. The head-to-head result takes precedence, then goal difference, goals scored, and finally disciplinary records and a potential draw settles the issue if needed.
