How the Round of 32 will be played at the 2026 World Cup

The system will be the same one usually used in the decisive stages of World Cups. Each match will be single elimination and, in the event of a tie at the end of the 90 regular minutes, two 15-minute extra-time periods will be played. If the tie remains, it will be decided by penalties.
