## Knockout phase

In the knockout phase, teams play against each other over a single match. If the match ends up as a draw, extra time will be played. If a winner doesn't occur after the extra time the winner emerges by a flip of a coin. The mechanism of the draws for each round is as follows:
* In the draw for the round of 32, the teams that had qualified to previous' season Round of 16 are seeded and the clubs that passed the qualification round are unseeded.
* In the draws for the round of 16 onwards, there are no seedings, and teams from the same group can be drawn against each other.
