Answer the questions based on the information given below:

The year was $2006.$ All six teams in Pool A of World Cup Hockey, play each other exactly once. Each win earns a team $3$ points, a draw earns one point and a loss earns zero points. The two teams with the highest points qualify for the semi-finals. In case of a tie, the team with the highest goal difference (Goal For – Goal Against) qualifies.

In the opening match, Spain lost to Germany. After the second round (after each team played two matches), the pool table looked as shown below:
