Belarusian Cup
The Belarusian Cup is an annual association football knock-out cup competition for men's football clubs of Belarus, organized by the Football Federation of Belarus.
Belarusian Cup was established in 1992. Each year the winning team qualifies for the UEFA Europa League.
History and format
The cup is a traditional single-elimination tournament. Usually, the cup involves all clubs participating in Belarusian Premier League, First League and Second League, as well a small number of amateur clubs that can qualify through local amateur Cup competitions. Unlike the league season, Belarusian Cup is still played using a fall/spring schedule.The most frequently used format of the cup included six rounds. Typically, the quarterfinals and semifinals are played after the winter break and consist of two-legged ties. However, both the schedule and the number of matches in each round can be adjusted depending on the availability of domestic match dates. The final match is traditionally played in May. Since 2013, the final is played at various venues across the country.
