The big difference this year from last year is doing away with the away goal rule.
With no away goal rule, if ties are level after 180 minutes, teams will have to go to extra time irrespective of the number of goals each team has scored at home and away.If the teams still cannot be separated after the additional 30 minutes, the tie goes to a penalty shoot-out.
