In the knock-out stage, the 16 teams played a single-elimination tournament. In the quarter-finals and semi-finals, each tie was played on a home-and-away two-legged basis, while in the round of 16 and final, each tie was played as a single match. The away goals rule (for two-legged ties), extra time (away goals do not apply in extra time) and penalty shoot-out were used to decide the winner if necessary. [1]
The schedule of each round was as follows. [2]

Round of 16 | 14–15 May 2013 | |
Quarter-finals | 17 September 2013 | 24 September 2013 |
Semi-finals | 1 October 2013 | 22 October 2013 |
Final | 2 November 2013 |
In the round of 16, the winners of one group played the runners-up of another group in the same zone, with the group winners hosting the match. [1] The matchups were determined as follows:
The draw for the quarter-finals, semi-finals, and final (to decide the host team) was held on 20 June 2013, 15:00 UTC+8, at the AFC House in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. [3] In this draw, teams from different zones could play each other, and the "country protection" rule was applied: if there are two teams from the same association, they may not play each other in the quarter-finals.
