2010–11 Uefa Champions League Knockout Phase

The knockout phase involved the 16 teams who finished in the top two in each of their groups in the group stage.

Times are CET/CEST, as listed by UEFA (local times are in parentheses).

Format

Each tie in the knockout phase, apart from the final, was played over two legs, with each team playing one leg at home. The team that had the higher aggregate score over the two legs progressed to the next round. If aggregate scores finish level, the away goals rule was applied, i.e. the team that scored more goals away from home over the two legs progressed. If away goals were also equal, then 30 minutes of extra time were played, divided into two 15-minute halves. The away goals rule was again applied after extra time, i.e. if there were goals scored during extra time and the aggregate score was still level, the visiting team qualified by more away goals scored. If no goals were scored during extra time, the tie was decided by a penalty shoot-out. In the final, the tie was played as a single match. If scores were level at the end of normal time in the final, extra time was played, followed by penalties if scores remained tied.

In the draw for the round of 16, each of the eight group winners was drawn against a second-place team, with the group winners hosting the second leg. Teams from the same group or the same association were not allowed to be drawn against each other. There was a single draw after the round of 16 that determined the pairings for all subsequent rounds. For this draw, there were no seedings, and teams from the same group or the same association could be drawn with each other.

The draw mechanism for each round is as follows:

In the draw for the round of 16, matches were played between the winners of one group and the runners-up of a different group, with the group winner hosting the second leg. Teams from the same group or the same association cannot be drawn against each other.
From the quarter-finals onwards, these restrictions did not apply and teams from the same group or same associations may be drawn against each other.

Round and draw dates

All draws were held at UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland.
