Tie-breaking criteria
The tournament is played as a single-elimination tournament, with each round played as two-legged ties. At each stage of the tournament teams receive 3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw, and no points for a loss. If two or more teams are equal on points, the following criteria will be applied to determine which team advances to the next round:[4]
- better goal difference;
- higher number of away goals scored;
- penalty shootout.

Finals
Шаблон:Main In the finals, if the finalists are tied on points after the culmination of the second leg, the winner is the team who scored the most goals.
