Knockout round

edit

Each tie in the knockout round, apart from the final, is played over two legs, with each team playing one leg at home. The team that scores more goals on aggregate over the two legs advances to the next round (the away goals rule is not applied). If the aggregate score is level, the winners are decided by a penalty shoot-out. In the final, which is played as a single match, if the score is level at the end of normal time, a penalty shoot-out is played.[3]
