Is there extra-time and penalties at the Club World Cup 2025?

The Club World Cup is heating up as the world’s best teams prepare to contend in the ever-intense knockout stages.

The group stage has concluded, meaning it is boom or bust for teams seeking to become the inaugural champions of the revamped competition in the United States.

With close to £100m in prize money up for grabs for the eventual winners, clubs will be desperate to claw their way to the final on July 13 at New York’s MetLife Stadium.

But to get there, teams will have to fight to the wire - sometimes beyond the standard 90 minutes - to separate each other and ensure their dream of Club World Cup glory stays alive.

Here is how extra time and penalties will work in the Club World Cup.

Is there extra-time and penalties at the Club World Cup 2025?

If the score is level when the full-time whistle is blown in a knockout game, a 30-minute period of extra time - split into two 15-minute halves - will then be played to try and decide a winner.

During extra time, teams will be able to make an additional substitution on top of the five they’ve been allotted for the entire game.

If no winner can be found in extra time, a penalty shootout will take place to settle to tie and determine who progresses.

Players from each team will take penalties until there is a winner, and if the scores are level after five spot-kicks each, the shootout will go to sudden death.
