From this phase onwards, the team that advanced from groups that had two teams (including the winner of the finals) had to decided by points (two for a win, one for a draw). If after two games, no one team had the most points, a single-game playoff was to be played on neutral grounds to determine who advanced (or wins as is the case for the finals). If the playoff game ended in a draw, goal difference will be used a tie-breaker.
