Welsh Cup 2017-18

The Welsh Cup (walisisk: Cwpan Cymru) er en pokalturnering for fodboldklubber fra Wales, som hver sæson arrangeres af Football Association of Wales. Turneringen er afviklet hver sæson siden 1877-78 (bortset fra i perioderne 1915-19 og 1940-46). Vinderen af turneringen er walisisk pokalmester og kvalificerer sig til den efterfølgende udgave af UEFA Europa League.

Turneringen blev i begyndelsen domineret af hold fra det nordlige Wales, hvor fodbold var mere populært end i Sydwales, hvor rugby var den foretrukne sportsgren. Og først i 1912 blev turneringen vundet af et hold fra syd: Cardiff City FC.

Indtil 1995 kunne hold fra England, der var lokaliseret nær grænsen til Wales, deltage i Welsh Cup, og turneringen er 21 gange blevet vundet af engelske hold – senest i 1990, hvor Hereford United FC sejrede. De engelske hold kunne imidlertid ikke kvalificere sig UEFA Cup Winners' Cup ved at vinde Welsh Cup. Fra 1996 til 2011 var turneringen forbeholdt klubber fra Wales, som spillede i det walisiske ligasystem, hvilket betød at engelske hold og de seks walisiske hold, der spillede i det engelske ligasystem, Swansea City AFC, Cardiff City FC, Newport County AFC, Wrexham AFC, Colwyn Bay FC og Merthyr Town FC, ikke længere kunne deltage.

Den 20. april 2011 inviterede Football Association of Wales imidlertid de seks walisiske klubber til at deltage i Welsh Cup 2011-12, men kun Newport County, Wrexham og Merthyr Town tog imod invitationen.[1]

Vindere og finalister

49 forskellige hold har deltaget i Welsh Cup-finalerne fra turneringens begyndelse til 2011. Heraf har 31 af holdene vundet turneringen mindt én gang.

Finaler

Den første finale i Welsh Cup blev spillet i 1878. Indtil 1961 blev finalerne afviklet som én kamp, som blev spillet om i tilfælde af uafgjort. I perioden 1962-85 blev finalerne afviklet over to kampe (ude og hjemme), hvor vinderen var det hold, som opnåede flest point i de to kampe. Hvis begge hold endte med lige mange point, blev der spillet en tredje og afgørende kamp. Fra 1973 blev de to finaler afgjort af den samlede score i finalerne, således at en evt. 3. kamp ikke blev nødvendig. Fra 1986 vendte man tilbage til det tidligere system med omkamp i tilfælde af uafgjort. Senest er finalerne afviklet som én kamp, der afgøres efter forlænget spilletid og straffesparkkonkurrence hvis nødvendigt.
