2015–16 UEFA Women's Champions League knockout phase
The 2015–16 UEFA Women's Champions League knockout phase began on 7 October 2015 and will conclude on 26 May 2016 with the final at Mapei Stadium – Città del Tricolore in Reggio Emilia, Italy to decide the champions of the 2015–16 UEFA Women's Champions League. A total of 32 teams will compete in the knockout phase.[1]
Times from 25 October 2015 up to 26 March 2016 (round of 16 and quarter-finals first legs) are CET (UTC+1), all other times are CEST (UTC+2).
Round and draw dates
UEFA has scheduled the competition as follows (all draws held at the UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland).[2] In contrast to previous seasons, the round of 16 draw is held after the round of 32 is completed (separately from the round of 32 draw) and is seeded.
Round | Draw | First leg | Second leg |
---|---|---|---|
Round of 32 | 20 August 2015, 13:30 | 7–8 October 2015 | 14–15 October 2015 |
Round of 16 | 19 October 2015, 13:30 | 11–12 November 2015 | 18–19 November 2015 |
Quarter-finals | 27 November 2015, 13:30 | 23–24 March 2016 | 30–31 March 2016 |
Semi-finals | 23–24 April 2016 | 30 April – 1 May 2016 | |
Final | 26 May 2016 at Mapei Stadium – Città del Tricolore, Reggio Emilia |
Format
The knockout phase involves 32 teams: 24 teams which qualified directly, and the eight group winners from the qualifying round.[1]
Each tie in the knockout phase, apart from the final, is played over two legs, with each team playing one leg at home. The team that scores more goals on aggregate over the two legs advances to the next round. If the aggregate score is level, the away goals rule is applied, i.e. the team that scores more goals away from home over the two legs advances. If away goals are also equal, then 30 minutes of extra time is played. The away goals rule is again applied after extra time, i.e. if there are goals scored during extra time and the aggregate score is still level, the visiting team advances by virtue of more away goals scored. If no goals are scored during extra time, the tie is decided by penalty shoot-out. In the final, which is played as a single match, if scores are level at the end of normal time, extra time is played, followed by penalty shoot-out if scores remain tied.
The mechanism of the draws for each round is as follows:
- In the draw for the round of 32, the sixteen teams with the highest UEFA coefficients are seeded (with the title holders being the automatic top seed), and the other sixteen teams are unseeded. The seeded teams are drawn against the unseeded teams, with the seeded teams hosting the second leg. Teams from the same association cannot be drawn against each other.
- In the draw for the round of 16, the eight teams with the highest UEFA coefficients are seeded (with the title holders being the automatic top seed should they qualify), and the other eight teams are unseeded. The seeded teams are drawn against the unseeded teams, with the seeded teams hosting the second leg. Teams from the same association cannot be drawn against each other.
- In the draws for the quarter-finals onwards, there are no seedings, and teams from the same association can be drawn against each other.
Qualified teams
Below are the 32 teams which participate in the knockout phase (with their 2015 UEFA club coefficients, which took into account their performance in European competitions from 2010–11 to 2014–15 plus 33% of their association coefficient from the same time span).[3][4]
