2022–23 UEFA Youth League knockout phase

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 2022–23 UEFA Youth League knockout phase began on 7 February 2023 with the play-off round and concluded with the final on 24 April 2023 at Stade de Genève in Geneva, Switzerland, to decide the champions of the 2022–23 UEFA Youth League.[1] The semi-finals and final have been traditionally played at the Colovray Stadium in Nyon since the first edition, but for the 2022–23 edition they were moved to the Stade de Genève due to increased interest in the tournament from the supporters of the participating clubs.[2] All matches are played across 90 minutes and penalty shoot-out if necessary.

Times are CET/CEST,[note 1] as listed by UEFA (local times, if different, are in parentheses).
