The knockout stage draw for the 2021-22 TotalEnergies CAF Confederation Cup will be conducted on Tuesday 05 April 2022 in Cairo.
You can watch the draw live on CAF platforms at 15:00 Cairo local time (13:00 GMT).
Eight teams won their ticket for the knockout phase: Al Ahli Tripoli (Libya), Pyramids (Egypt), Orlando Pirates (South Africa), Al Ittihad (Libya), TP Mazembe (DR Congo), Al Masry (Egypt ), RS Berkane (Morocco), Simba SC (Tanzania).
Below is the draw procedure:
QUARTERFINALS
Six Pots will be used for the draw.
Pot 1 will contain all 2nd place teams (runners-up) of their groups:
·
Pyramids FC,
·
Al Ittihad,
·
Al Masry SC,
·
Simba SC
Pot 2 will contain 3 balls of the 1st place team of Group A: (
Al Ahli Tripoli x 3 balls)
Pot 3 will contain 3 balls of the 1st place team of Group B:
(Orlando Pirates x 3 balls)
Pot 4 will contain 3 balls of the 1st place team of Group C: (
TP Mazembe x 3 balls)
Pot 5 will contain 3 balls of the 1st place team of Group D: (
RS Berkane x 3 balls)
Pot 6 will be an empty pot.
Step 1:
· Pick a ball from the runners-up pot (Pot 1) and show the team drawn.
Step 2:
· Pick 1 ball from the other pots (pots 2,3,4&5) except the pot that has the team that played in the same group of the runner-up team drawn in step 1 (to avoid having two teams from the same group playing each other).
Example: if we pick the runner-up (2nd of group A), we take one ball from pot 3, one from pot 4 and one from pot 5 and we eliminate pot 2 (containing the balls of 1st of Group A).
Step 3:
· The picked balls in step 2 are put in the empty pot (Pot 6).
Step 4:
· Mix the three balls of Pot 6 before picking one ball to determine the team who will face the runner up drawn in step 1 for the Quarterfinal 1.
Step 5:
· The same process will be repeated three more times in order to determine the remaining fixtures (Quarterfinal 2, Quarterfinal 3 & Quarterfinal 4) while eliminating the pot of the ball drawn in step 4.
According to the regulations: The runners-up shall play the first leg matches of the quarterfinals at home.
SEMI-FINALS:
One Pot will contain all the quarter finals as follow: QF1 – QF2 – QF3 – QF4
Step 1:
· The first 2 balls drawn will play each other in SF1. The ball drawn first will play the first match at home and the ball drawn second will play the return match at home.
Step 2:
· The last 2 balls in the pot will play each other in SF2. The ball drawn first will play the first match at home and the ball drawn second will play the return match at home.
FINAL:
The winner of SF1 plays the final against the winner of SF2.
