Handball tournaments
This article describes the knockout stage of the 2019–20 Women's EHF Champions League.[1]
On 25 March, the EHF announced that no matches will be played before June due to the coronavirus pandemic.[2]
All matches were cancelled on 26 June 2020.[3]
Qualified teams
The top four placed teams from each of the two main round groups advanced to the knockout stage.[4]
Group | First place | Second place | Third place | Fourth place |
1 | Metz Handball | Team Esbjerg | Rostov-Don | CSM București |
2 | Győri Audi ETO KC | Brest Bretagne Handball | Budućnost | SCM Râmnicu Vâlcea |
The first-placed team of each group will face the fourth-placed team, and the second-placed team will play against the third-placed team from the other group. After that a draw will be held to determine the pairings for the final four.[5]
Quarterfinals
The European Handball Federation announced on 13 March 2020 that the quarter-finals matches will not be held as scheduled due to the ongoing developments in the spread of COVID-19 across Europe.[6] The matches were rescheduled on 25 March.[2] The matches were cancelled on 24 April 2020, although they might be played before the final four.[7]
