2009–10 UEFA Champions League knockout phase
Contributors to Wikimedia projects
The knockout phase of the 2009–10 UEFA Champions League began on 16 February and concluded on 22 May 2010 with the final won by Internazionale against Bayern Munich 2–0 at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium in Madrid.[1] The knockout phase involved the sixteen teams who finished in the top two in each of their groups in the group stage.[1]
Times are CET/CEST,[note 1] as listed by UEFA (local times are in parentheses).
Each tie in the knockout phase, apart from the final, was played over two legs, with each team playing one leg at home. The team that had the higher aggregate score over the two legs progressed to the next round. In the event that aggregate scores finished level, the team that scored more goals away from home over the two legs progressed. If away goals were also equal, 30 minutes of extra time were played. If there were goals scored during extra time and the aggregate score was still level, the visiting team qualified by virtue of more away goals scored. If no goals were scored during extra time, the tie was settled via a penalty shoot-out.
The draw mechanism for each round is as follows:
- In the draw for the round of 16, matches were played between the winners of one group and the runners-up of a different group, with the group winner hosting the second leg. Teams from the same group or same association cannot be drawn against each other.
- From the quarter-finals onwards, these restrictions did not apply and teams from same group or same associations may be drawn against each other.
In the final, the tie was played over just one leg at a neutral venue. If scores were level at the end of normal time in the final, extra time was played, followed by penalties if scores remained tied.

The draw for the semi-finals took place on 19 March 2010, immediately after the draw for the quarter-finals.[6] The first legs were played on 20 and 21 April, and the second legs were played on 27 and 28 April 2010.[7] There were fears that the first legs would have to be postponed due to the eruptions of the volcano at Eyjafjallajökull in Iceland. On 18 April, UEFA issued a statement that the matches would go ahead and that the teams would have to make alternate travel arrangements.[8]

The final was played on 22 May 2010 at the Santiago Bernabéu in Madrid, Spain. A draw was held on 19 March 2010, after the quarter-final and semi-final draws, to determine the "home" team for administrative purposes.[6] It was contested by Germany's Bayern Munich and Italy's Inter Milan.[9] The stadium, home of Real Madrid, had hosted three previous European Cup finals, in 1957, 1969 and 1980.[10] It was the first time that a UEFA Champions League final was played on a Saturday night.[11][12][13][14] England's Howard Webb was appointed to referee the final.[15] The two clubs competing in the Final had each won their domestic league and cup competitions, meaning that the winner would become only the sixth club in Europe to have achieved a continental treble, and the first such club from their respective countries. It was also the second consecutive treble, following that of Barcelona in the previous season.
