In the knockout stage, if a match was level at the end of 90 minutes of normal playing time,
extra time was played (two periods of 15 minutes each), where each team was allowed to make a sixth
substitution. If still tied after extra time, the match was decided by a
penalty shoot-out to determine the winners. UEFA set out the following schedule for the round of 16: •
Match 1: Winner
Group B vs 3rd Group A/D/E/F •
Match 2: Winner
Group A vs Runner-up
