Format

All ties were played over two legs. The team that scored more goals on aggregate over the two legs won the tie. The away goals rule was not used in this edition, as the tournament was hosted in a centralized venue, which was Singapore. If the aggregate score was level at the end of normal time of the second leg, extra time was played, and if the same number of goals were scored by both teams during extra time, the tie was decided by a penalty shoot-out.
