Final stage
The final stage will be played on a single-elimination basis and consists of the semi-finals, third place match and the final. If a match was tied at the end of regular playing time, the winner would be decided directly by a penalty shoot-out (no extra time will be played) (Regulations Article 24). The semi-final matchups will be:
- Semi-final 1 (SF1): Group A winner vs. Best runner-up
- Semi-final 2 (SF2): Group B winner vs. Group C winner
