ABOLITION OF THE AWAY GOALS RULE
The away goals rule has been scrapped as of the 2021/22 season, so any ties that are level after 180 minutes will go to extra time, regardless of the number of away goals scored by each team. If the scoreline remains level after extra time, a penalty shootout will take place.
