(3) The match time for the group stage is 70 minutes (with a halftime of 10 minutes), and for the knockout stage is 80 minutes (with a halftime of 15 minutes). In the group stage, if the result is not determined within the playing time, it will be considered a draw. However, in the Round of 16 and quarterfinals, if the result is not determined within the playing time, it will be decided by a penalty kick shootout. In the semifinals and finals, there will be a 20-minute extension after a 5-minute break, and if the result is still not determined, it will be decided by a penalty kick shootout.
(4) The ranking of each group's league matches shall be determined as follows.
①Points are awarded as follows: a win is worth 3 points, a draw is worth 1 point, and a loss is worth 0 points. The team with the most points will be ranked higher.
②The team with a higher goal difference will be ranked higher if the points are the same.
③If the goal difference is the same, the team with more goals will be ranked higher.
④If the scores are the same in ③, the result will be determined by the results of the matches between the teams. However, in the case of a draw, a lottery will be conducted. (A preliminary lottery and a main lottery will be held. The preliminary lottery will be drawn first from the top row of the group league star table.)
(5) Knockout Stage Qualifying Teams
A) A total of 16 teams, consisting of the top two teams from each group, will advance to the knockout stage.
Semifinal Round) The pairing draw for the knockout stage will be conducted by the tournament organizing committee. The draw method will separate the 1st and 2nd place teams for a free draw. (To avoid teams from the same group meeting until the quarterfinals)
