The knock-out rounds are played almost the same way as that in the UCL. Here are some of the rules of the knock-out stages (including the semi-finals):
1. Scores are to be aggregated, with the team gathering the higher aggregate score to advance.
2. In case of ties, the team with more away goals advances.
3. If the previous rule proves inconclusive, 2 15-minute games are to be played.
4. In case of ties, the game shall be decided upon by a penalty shootout.
5. After the semi-finals, the two teams that advance shall compete for the trophy on a single match in Glasgow's Hampden Park, home to Queen's Park FC, on May 16, 2007
The result of the draw for both Round of 32 and Round of 16 are as follows:
Take note:
1. The champions of each group in the Group Stages first play away against the 3rd placers.
2. The runners-up then play the 3rd placers of the UEFA Champions League Group Stages.
3. The two legs of the Round of 32 are to be played on February 14 and 22.
4. I would've loved to see Barca here instead of Bremen. But anyway, they might give Liverpool some beating. Or it could be the other way around.
PS I just discovered that there's a UEFA Super Cup, a one match cup wherein the champions of the Champions League and the UEFA Cup face each other. Just las August, Sevilla FC defeated FC Barcelona, 0-3. Could it be that Barca just didn't give a damn about this? LOL
