In the event that more than two teams are initially tied and at least one team wins or loses a tiebreaker, the tiebreaking procedure will continue with the next criterion on the list, with results from all initially tied teams still included in the "head-to-head" calculation.
In the knockout stage, if a match is tied at the end of normal playing time, two fifteen-minute periods of extra time will be played. If the match is still tied at the end of extra time, a penalty shoot-out will be held to determine the winners.
