Not sure this is right. (5)
Please explain.
6 teams qualify from the group stage.
So 6 teams in round 2 who play each other.
3 teams qualify for final tournament.
Leaving the 3 losing teams who i assume go into the 3rd round knockout stage so where are the other 3 teams to make up the 6.
I'm not certain this is correct but the way I see it is:
Group Stage
There are 9 groups and the best 6 group winners advance to round 2.
Round 2
3 matches and the 3 winners qualify for the finals.
Round 3
6 teams advance to the next round, so there must be 6 matches and 12 teams.
It doesn't say but it would be reasonable to assume that the 12 teams are:
- the 3 losers from round 2
- the 3 group winners who didn't play in round 2
- the best 6 runners-up from the group stage
Round 4
The 6 teams who won in round 3 play each other and the 3 winners qualify for the finals.
The correct format should be the one used last times:

there is one team less this time but that should not be a problem with one of the group with only 3 teams
