This evening, Inter take the field for the round of 16 of the 2025 **Club World Cup**, the first edition with this new format created by **FIFA**. This is the **first knockout match** that Chivu’s Nerazzurri will have to face in the competition, following three matches a draw in their debut and then two wins in **Group E**.
Since the **knockout stages** leading from the current round of 16 all the way to the **final** on July 13th in New York have now begun, it’s worth discovering **what the rules are** for this Club World Cup. One of the questions **Inter** fans are asking is whether, for these matches, **in the case of a tie at the 90th minute**, penalty shootouts happen immediately.
This is actually a scenario we’re becoming familiar with in our country with the **Coppa Italia**—where, up to but not including the semifinals, penalty shootouts are taken immediately after the 90th minute without extra time. However, at the **Club World Cup**, in every knockout round, **30 minutes of extra time are played** in case of a tie at the end of regulation.
