The Finnish Football Cup ( Finnish Suomen Cup ) is the men's cup competition organized by the Finnish association Suomen Palloliitto (SPL) since 1955 . With a few exceptions, the finals took place in the capital Helsinki . From 1955 to 1999 the final was at the Helsinki Olympic Stadium . From 2000 to 2014 the trophy was played in the Finnair Stadium, today's Telia 5G -areena , with around 10,000 seats in the immediate vicinity of the Olympic Stadium. The venue has been changing since 2015. The cup winner gets a place in the qualifying round of the UEFA Europa League .

The record holder is HJK Helsinki with thirteen titles. The current cup winner (2019) is Tampereen Ilves .

mode

All teams registered in the Finnish league system, including senior and junior teams, can take part in the cup competition. Participation is not mandatory, which means that there are usually professional clubs that do not take part in the cup. 356 teams took part in the 2009 Suomen Cup.

The competition is played out within a calendar year in the simple knockout system , ie the winner of each game reaches the next round, the loser is eliminated. Teams from the three top divisions enter the competition at a later point in time (2009 between the 4th and 6th round).
