2017 Africa Cup of Nations knockout stage

The knockout stage of the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations will run from 28 January to the final on 5 February 2017 in Gabon.

In the knockout stages, if a match was level at the end of normal playing time, extra time would be played (two periods of 15 minutes each) and followed, if necessary, by kicks from the penalty mark to determine the winner, except for the play-off for third place where no extra time was played.

All times are local, WAT (UTC+1).^[1]
