(f) greater number of goals scored in all the group matches;
(g) a play-off on neutral ground.
8 With the approval of the Organising Committee for the FIFA World
CupTM, the play-off may be played in one of the countries concerned.
If, after 90 minutes, this match ends in a draw, extra time of twice 15
minutes shall be played applying the golden goal rule (cf. Art. 17, par.
3). If no goal is scored during these periods of extra time, penalty kicks
shall be taken to determine the winner (cf. Art. 17, par. 2, 3 and 4).
9 In the knock-out system, both teams shall play one home and
one away match each, the sequence of which will be determined
by lots drawn by the Organising Committee for the FIFA World CupTM.
The team having scored most goals in both games will qualify for
the next round. If both teams score the same number of goals in
both matches, the goals scored away will be counted as double. If
the same number of goals is scored away or both matches end without
any goals being scored, extra time of twice 15 minutes shall be
played after the second match, applying the golden goal rule. If no
goal is scored during these periods of extra time, penalty kicks shall
be taken to determine the winner (cf. Art. 17, par. 2, 3 and 4).
