If there is no result after the first half, the second half must be played. The second half will be played as a golden-goal (the player who scores the first goal wins the match). If there is still a tie after the end result, the higher seeded player will be awarded the win.  
  • For Total of 2: Should both players be tied on aggregate (combined) goals after two matches have been played, a third match must be played. The first half will be played as a traditional extra-time. If there is no result after the first half, the second half must be played. The second half will be played as a golden-goal (the player who scores the first goal wins the match). If there is still a tie after the end result, the higher seeded player will be awarded the win.
