The correct option is B 88
$\begin{matrix} I n d i a & B r a z i l & P a k i s t a n & F r a n c e & A u s t r a l i a & I r a n & C r o a t i a & E n g l a n d I n d i a (12) & x & W i n & W i n & W i n & L o s s & W i n & W i n & W i n B r a z i l (8) & L o s s & x & W i n & W i n & L o s s & L o s s & W i n & W i n P a k i s t a n (6) & L o s s & L o s s & x & W i n & L o s s & L o s s & W i n & W i n F r a n c e (1) & L o s s & L o s s & L o s s & x & L o s s & L o s s & D r a w & L o s s A u s t r a l i a (10) & W i n & W i n & W i n & W i n & x & W i n & L o s s & L o s s I r a n (10) & L o s s & W i n & W i n & W i n & L o s s & x & W i n & W i n C r o a t i a (5) & L o s s & L o s s & W i n & D r a w & L o s s & L o s s & x & W i n E n g l a n d (4) & L o s s & L o s s & L o s s & W i n & W i n & L o s s & L o s s & x \end{matrix}$
Since no two matches were drawn in the league round, the top two teams should earn 6 and 4 points respectively. So, the total points from league round will be 4 (6 + 4) = 40 and in quarter finals, total matches were 24 and so total points of all the teams in quarter finals will be $24 \times 2 = 48$ .So, after quarter finals, the sum of total points is 40 + 48 = 88.
