After the grueling matches of the Group Stage the round of 16 begins. The top team in each group will play against the 2nd place from a different group. There are no mistakes allowed in the round of 16; as they are based on the knock-out system where the losing team is immediately eliminated. Unlike the group stages, draws are not allowed, matches will go to extra time and even penalties until there is a winner. Eight intense matches to decide who moves forward to the Quarter Finals.
