## Discipline

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:

* 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 |
| - | - | - | - | - |
| Bermuda | 1 | 2 | 1 | −4 |
| Costa Rica | 1 | 2 | 2 | −5 |
| Haiti | 1 | 4 | | −5 |
| Nicaragua | 1 | 2 | 2 | −5 |
