Knockout stage
The knockout stage is a single-elimination tournament involving the 16 teams that qualified from the Group stage of the tournament. There are four rounds of matches, with each round eliminating half of the teams entering that round. The successive rounds are: Round of 16, Quarter-finals, Semi-finals, Final. There is also a play-off to decide 3rd/4th place. For each game in the knockout stage, a draw is followed by 30 minutes of extra time (two 15 minute halves); if scores are still level there is a penalty shootout (five penalties each - if still even, "sudden death") to determine who progresses to the next round. Scores after extra time are indicated by (AET), and penalty shoot outs are indicated by (PEN).

The Round of Sixteen started on June 24, 2006 and was completed on June 27, 2006. The quarter finals started on June 30, 2006.
