A team could come in, park the bus, nab three 0-0s, and keep playing that way going for penalties. That would make for an awful tournament.
actually a team could get 2nd with 2 points (9-2-2-2)

I don't think a team tries to get 3 draws, it could be pretty risky cause 3 points might not be enough.

In the Copa America 2011 Paraguay made the final with 5 draws
