The clubs of Divizia A only got in the round of the last 32 teams and had to play away first. From the round of 16 onwards, all games - apart from the final, which traditionally took place in Bucharest - were played on a neutral pitch. Only one game was played at a time. If this was a draw after 90 minutes, an extension of 30 minutes followed. If after that there was still no decision, the lower class team advanced. If both played in the same league, the decision was made on penalties . In the sixteenth finals, in the event of a tie after extra time, the away team went on one round.
