The final was played on a home-and-away
two-legged basis, with the team with the better performance in previous rounds hosting the second leg.
The
away goals rule would not be applied, and
extra time would be played if the aggregate score was tied after the second leg. If the aggregate score was still tied after extra time, the
penalty shoot-out would be used to determine the winner (Regulations II, Article G).[1]
