Default sorting with RANK/VLOOKUP (problem with equal ranks)


Hi, I'm creating a spreadsheet for sports that has a Group of 4 teams.
I've set up a RANK & VLOOKUP function in order to automatically sort
the table however I run into a couple of problems.

1. When 2 teams have the same rank based on points, the cell shows #N/A
so I need to know how to put in tie breakers. For example, a tie
breaker would be another column that has goal differential in it.

2. When no scores are entered in the system it also ranks all teams as
#1 and the same problem arises. I don't know if the same fix would
work for both.

Can anybody help with this?
