Top11 uses the same tiebreaker rules as UEFA. If 3 teams are tied at the top of the group on points, they take away results against the 4th-placed team.
Given that you had no draws, the team in 4th must have drawn with each of the top 2 - so that subtracts 1 point off each. Teams 1 and 2 must have drawn with each other twice (since they each had 3 draws, and 1-each vs team 4). By inference, Team 1 beat you twice, and you had a win and a loss vs team 2.
Team 4 must have picked up its only win against the team that ended up first, and you must have beaten Team 4 twice.
After removing points vs the 4th team, you're left with
T1 7 points
T2 5 points
Bender 3 points
So teams 1 and 2 go through. It's unlucky for you*, but blame UEFA.
Basically, head to head team 1 was better than you (2 wins). And team 2 was level with you (1 win each) , however team 2 was also level with team 1 (2 draws), which gives him credit.
*If team 1 had played better vs team 4 and ei you might have gone through in a head-to-head vs team 2.
