The 81st Swiss Cup (2003–2008 Swisscom Cup) took place from September 17, 2005 to April 17, 2006. After the BSC Young Boys clearly defeated the defending champions (and then championship runner-up) FC Zurich in the semifinals , they were favorites against the inferior FC Sion from the Challenge League. Contrary to expectations, the Sion team defied the Bernese with extra time and succeeded in the penalty shoot-out. This is the 10th time that FC Sion has brought the Cup back to Valais for the first time in nine years. Never before has a lower class club won the Swiss Cup.

The mode

The 10 clubs in the Axpo Super League and 17 clubs in the Challenge League were directly qualified for the Swisscom Cup (FC Vaduz from the Challenge League, which took part in the Liechtenstein Cup , was not eligible to play ). These 27 clubs were joined by 11 clubs from the first division and 26 clubs from the amateur league. They had to qualify for the Swisscom Cup in regional competitions. It was played in a knockout system.
