Rules for classification: 1. Points; 2. Goal difference; 3. Goals scored; 4. Away goals scored; 5. Drawing of lots.[1]

Format

In the knockout stages, the 16 teams played a single-elimination tournament, with the following rules:[1]

  • Each tie was played on a home-and-away two-legged basis, with the higher-seeded team hosting the second leg. However, CONMEBOL required that the second leg of the finals must be played in South America, i.e., a finalist from Mexico must host the first leg regardless of seeding.
  • In the round of 16, quarterfinals, and semifinals, if tied on aggregate, the away goals rule was used. If still tied, the penalty shoot-out was used to determine the winner (no extra time was played).
  • In the finals, if tied on aggregate, the away goals rule was not used, and 30 minutes of extra time was played. If still tied after extra time, the penalty shoot-out was used to determine the winner.
  • If there were two semifinalists from the same association, they must play each other.

Bracket

The bracket of the knockout stages was determined by the seeding as follows:[1]

  • Round of 16:
    • Match A: Seed 1 vs. Seed 16
    • Match B: Seed 2 vs. Seed 15
    • Match C: Seed 3 vs. Seed 14

    • Match F: Seed 6 vs. Seed 11
    • Match G: Seed 7 vs. Seed 10
    • Match H: Seed 8 vs. Seed 9
  • Quarterfinals:

    • Match S2: Winner B vs. Winner G
    • Match S3: Winner C vs. Winner F
    • Match S4: Winner D vs. Winner E
  • Semifinals: (if there were two semifinalists from the same association, they must play each other)
    • Match F1: Winner S1 vs. Winner S4
    • Match F2: Winner S2 vs. Winner S3
