2024–25 Iraq FA Cup

The Iraq Cup (Arabic: كأس العراق), commonly known as the Iraq FA Cup, is an annual knockout football competition in men's domestic Iraqi football organised by the Iraq Football Association.[1] First held in the 1948–49 season for clubs and institutions, it returned in the 1975–76 season as a clubs-only competition.

The tournament usually begins with several rounds played between lower division clubs, twelve of which advance to the Round of 32, where the Iraq Stars League clubs are entered. This is followed by the Round of 16, the quarter-finals, the semi-finals and the final which is played as a single leg in Baghdad.

The winners of the competition are awarded a place in the next season's AFC Champions League Two group stage as well as qualifying for the Iraqi Super Cup where they play against the league champions at the start of the following season (or the league runners-up, if the cup winners have won the double).

Al-Shorta are the current holders, having beaten Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya 1–0 in the 2024 final.

History

Foundation and development

The Iraq Football Association was founded on 8 October 1948 and within its first week it had decided to hold a national knockout cup called the Iraq Football Association Cup for clubs and institute-representative teams.[2] The tournament kicked off on 21 January 1949 and culminated in Sharikat Naft Al-Basra winning the final on 7 April.[3] For the next 26 years, cup tournaments for clubs and institutions were played at a regional level (such as the Iraq FA Baghdad Cup which was played in the 1973–74 season) until the national knockout cup competition returned as a clubs-only competition in 1975 as the Iraq Cup.[4]

Al-Shaab Stadium was chosen by the Iraq FA to host the cup finals as it was able to accommodate the large number of spectators in the capital city.[5] The first club to win the double was Al-Zawraa, winning the 1975–76 Iraqi National League and the 1975–76 Iraq FA Cup. Overall, Al-Zawraa have eight doubles while Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya have three, Al-Rasheed have two, and Al-Talaba and Al-Shorta each have one.[1]

In the 1976–77 season, the tournament was not held due to scheduling difficulties, and in the 1984–85 season, it was cancelled at the semi-final stage to allow the Iraq national team to prepare for their 1986 FIFA World Cup qualifying matches, which was the same reason why the 1984–85 Iraqi National League was cancelled. The cup was also not held the following season, but returned for the 1986–87 campaign. It was also not held in the 2000–01 season due to scheduling difficulties.[1]

The 2003 edition of the Iraq FA Cup Final was hosted in Erbil at the Franso Hariri Stadium for security reasons. The tournament was not held from 2003–04 up until 2011–12 as the Iraq War caused travel problems for clubs and difficulties with scheduling. The cup finally returned in the 2012–13 season, but was eventually cancelled midway through due to scheduling difficulties with the 2012–13 Iraqi Elite League.[6]

It was not held again until the FA decided to hold it in the 2015–16 season.[7] This time, the cup was not cancelled, although a large number of Premier League teams withdrew from the competition. The 2016 Iraq FA Cup Final was the first Iraq FA Cup final held for 13 years, and was played between Baghdad rivals Al-Zawraa and Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya with the latter winning 2–0. In the first edition of the tournament, there were 25 teams; by the 2021–22 season, there was an all-time high of 168 teams in the tournament. Al-Minaa are the only team to have participated in every edition of the tournament since 1948–49.

Cup runs and giant killings

Lower division teams have knocked out top-flight sides on numerous occasions. In the cup's first season in 1948–49, Baghdad top-flight side Wizarat Al-Maarif lost 3–2 to second-tier team Al-Tayour Al-Zarqaa in the second round. In the 1977–78 edition of the cup, the second team of Al-Tayaran (Al-Tayaran B), who played in the second-tier, eliminated Al-Jaish, who finished in fourth place in the 1977–78 Iraqi National League, from the first round of the cup with a 1–0 win.[8] In the same edition, Al-Zawraa were defeated by second-tier team Al-Bahri in the quarter-finals, 2–1.[8] In the 1982–83 edition, second-tier club Al-Hudood knocked out Arab Club Champions Cup holders Al-Shorta 7–6 on penalties.

In the 1989–90 edition, Al-Rasheed, who had won the Premier League in each of the past three seasons and the FA Cup in two of the past three seasons, were defeated by second-tier club Al-Tijara 3–2 on aggregate in the Round of 16.[9] In the 1992–93 edition, Al-Tijara pulled off another shock by defeating Al-Shorta in the first round, 2–1, and they also defeated another top-flight team in Al-Jaish in the Round of 16 with the same result.[10] The 2016–17 Iraq FA Cup saw two major upsets in the Round of 32 as Al-Naft and Al-Shorta lost 3–2 and 3–1 to second-tier clubs Al-Sinaa and Al-Jaish respectively, both at home.

Eligibility

The competition is open to clubs from Level 1 to Level 4 of the Iraqi football league system which meet the eligibility criteria.

Competition format

2022–23 season

Overview

Beginning in November, the competition proceeded as a knockout tournament throughout, consisting of five rounds, a quarter-final, semi-final and then a final. Clubs in Level 1 entered the competition at a later stage than clubs in Levels 2, 3 and 4. There was no seeding, the fixtures in each round being determined by a random draw. The first three rounds were qualifiers, with the draws organised on a regional basis. The next five rounds were the "proper" rounds where all clubs were in one draw.

Schedule

Entrants from the bottom three levels (2, 3 and 4) began the competition in the qualifying rounds. Clubs from the top level were then added in for the competition proper, as per the table below. The qualifying rounds were regionalised to reduce the travel costs for lower division sides.

Trophy

Current design from 2022

The Iraq FA Cup trophy is designed in the shape of a tree with eighteen roots, branches and leaves encircling a ball.[11] The number eighteen refers to the eighteen governorates of Iraq. The image of Iraq as a tree is a metaphor suggesting that the nation may fall ill (just like a tree in autumn) but will inevitably bloom again. Unveiled on 6 April 2022, the trophy is the work of the famous sculptor Ahmed Albahrani who also designed the 2015 World Men's Handball Championship trophy.[12]

The trophy is kept by the Iraq Football Association and only a replica model is given permanently to the winning club.
