Sorry Abdullah, but you're wrong. Looking at the bracket, as stated, there are five opponents that needs to be faced. There's 32 teams, since every individual stick at the bottom represents a team. The reason there's only 16 teams at the opening ceremony is that the bracket is separated into two blocks, A and B. Most likey the block which IJ is part of plays their matches at the Holy Road Stadium while B block plays at another location. Then, after the semi finals, the two best teams from each block face each other in the finals.
