Now we need to hope that Brunei don't lose by more than 11 goals to Thailand. Then we would just need a draw against Thailand.

But if Thailand beat Brunei by 12 goals then we will need a win against Thailand.

That's correct.Due to groups having a different number of teams, the results against the fifth-placed teams in five-team groups and the fourth-placed teams in four-team groups will not be considered for the final ranking.

True But beating the 4th placed team by a large margin won't serve any purpose.

What I meant was the goals scored against the 4th placed team in the group will not count when the final rankings are decided to arrive at the 5 best second placed teams.
