Iraq FA Cup The Iraq FA Cup (Arabic: كأس العراق) is an annual knockout football competition in men's domestic Iraqi football. First held in the 1975–76 season, it is organised by and named after the Iraq Football Association. The tournament begins with two rounds played between lower division clubs, twelve of which advance to the Round of 32, where the Iraqi Premier League clubs are entered. The Round of 32 is then followed by the Round of 16, the quarter-finals, the semi-finals and the final, with all rounds being single legs (draws are decided by penalties if necessary; extra-time is not played).
