This template is designed to collect information, which is used in several articles, in one location. The 2020 AFC Cup group tables are shown on the overall tournament article, as well as the articles for each group, if not other articles as well. This template should replace the need to update the same information on several articles.
Please do not update results until the match has concluded.
Once the tournament starts, remove the |start_date= parameter and set |update= to the appropriate date.
To change the order of the teams, set |team1= to the team in first place in the group, |team2= to the team in second place, etc. The order of data entry does not need to be changed. The status of a team can also be set during the group stage if the outcome is known:
If a team will definitely advance, set |status=A
If a team will definitely eliminate, set |status=E
If a team is assured of at least second place, but not assured of advancing to knockout phase, set |status=X
If a team cannot win group, but may advance to knockout phase as best runner-up, set |status=Y
Otherwise, set |status=
When the group is complete, set |update=complete.
