Third-placed qualifiers

At the end of the first stage, a comparison will be made between the third placed teams of each group. The one best third-placed teams from the West Zone and one best third-placed team from the East would also advanced to the AFC U-19 Championship 2012.

West Zone

Because three groups has one team fewer than the others, following the withdrawal of Afghanistan and Nepal, matches against the sixth-placed team in each group are not included in this ranking. As a result, four matches played by each team will count for the purposes of the third-placed table.
