If they win tonight, they win the group
If they lose tonight, they finish 3rd.
Win, win situation. There won't be a USA-Lithuania matchup this year, unless both teams reach finals.Last edited by rocwell; Mon Aug 15, 2016, 07:24 PM.

As I understand it, then it's up to results among these 4 teams. Spain won 2 games against these other teams and has a huge point difference, so they will go first. The other 3 teams all have 1 win, but Lithuania will have the worst point differential because of that last blowout, so they should be last.
If I'm wrong though, it would be awesome.
