Encyclopedic overview
The Azerbaijan Cup (Azerbaijani: Azərbaycan Milli Futbol Kuboku) is a major association football competition in Azerbaijan. In its original form, it started in 1936, when Azerbaijan was a republic of the Soviet Union and it was not contested by Azerbaijani teams in the Soviet league pyramid.
Compared to major football competitions in many other countries, the tournament in Azerbaijan attracts considerably less public interest and even the cup final is rarely sold out. Consequently, the Association of Football Federations of Azerbaijan has experimented with the format in order to raise the profile of the competition.
