COMPETITION
INFORMATION
The
Portuguese Cup or, more correctly, Cup of Portugal Millennium, is the
Portuguese national football competition on a knock-out-basis. From
the 2008 season the cup is sponsored by the Portuguese biggest private
bank Millennium BCP. Up to 1938, the same competition was held under
the name Championship of Portugal (Campeonato de Portugal) and defined
the Portuguese champion.
History
The first incarnation of the Taça was in 1912, but very few clubs
could participate and thus it was not a regular competition, the fact
which ended it in 1918, the Portuguese Federation don't take in account
its existence. It was named "Taça do Império"
since S.C. Império organised it (do not confuse with Taça
Império, which was the inaugural game at the National Stadium
where the Champion and the Cup winner played against each other). In
1921 the the "National Championship" was created and was played
every season with all the clubs participating in elimination rounds,
the winners were named Champions of Portugal and it was the primary
tournament in Portugal, more important than the round-robin competition
itself created in the late 30's. For the 1938/1939 season, the name
was changed for "Taça de Portugal" (Cup of Portugal)
and the tournament turned into the second-most important in Portugal.
It is organized by the Portuguese Football Federation (Federação
Portuguesa de Futebol) and is played by all the teams in the four national
divisions (Liga, League of Honour, Second Division and Third Division).
Also the runners-up of each regional football associations local championships
from the previous season will have a place in the first round.
As
of 2007, the cup is comprised of 9 rounds (final included), with 1st
level clubs joining at the 4th round, the 2nd level clubs joining at
the 3rd round, the 3rd level clubs joining at the 2nd round and the
lower level clubs competing from the beginning.
The venue
The final game has been played at the Estádio Nacional in Jamor,
near Lisbon since 1946 with an exception for the year of 1961 (albeit
Estádio das Antas being the home of F.C. Porto, an agreement
was made between the two sides, since it was also quite nearer for Leixões
S.C. to play), in the three years following the Carnation Revolution
and in the season 1982/83, due to F.C. Porto pressure. In the years
next to the Carnation Revolution, the venue of the final game would
be at the home ground of the team that won the Portuguese Cup the previous
year (note that when Boavista F.C. won the Cup two times in a row, the
final of the next years were in Estádio das Antas (F.C. Porto's
home ground at the time), since the Estádio do Bessa (Boavista's
home ground) was too small to host the final and both teams were from
the same city, Porto).
