Wikipedia - AFC Cup

The AFC Cup is an annual continental club football competition organised by the Asian Football Confederation (AFC). The competition is played primarily among clubs from nations that did not receive direct qualifying slots to the top-tier AFC Champions League, based on the AFC Club Competitions Ranking.

Al-Kuwait SC and Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya are the most successful clubs in the competition's history, having won three titles each. Clubs from Kuwait have won four titles, making them the most successful nation in the competition. The tournament has been dominated by clubs from West Asia, with the only winners from outside that region being Uzbek side FC Nasaf in 2011 and Malaysian side Johor Darul Ta'zim in 2015.

Al-Seeb are the current champions after defeating Kuala Lumpur City in the 2022 final. Since the 2021 season, the team winning the AFC Cup is granted qualification to the following season's AFC Champions League qualifying playoffs should they not qualify through their domestic performance.

The AFC Cup is set to be discontinued at the end of the 2023–24 season, with the AFC Champions League 2 and AFC Challenge League being introduced as Asia's new second and third-tier competitions.

History

The AFC Cup began in 2004 as a second-tier competition to relate back to the AFC Champions League as 14 countries that had developing status competed in the first competition with 18 teams being nominated. Group A, B, C had West and Central Asian teams while the other two groups had east and South East Asia. The winners and three runners-up would then head to the knock-out stage where it was a random draw in who was going to play. Al-Jaish took the first AFC Cup after they defeated fellow Syrian opponents Al-Wahda on away goals.

In 2005, 18 teams competed from nine nations with the nations still being allowed to choose from one or two teams entering. After Syrian teams left the AFC Cup to try at the AFC Champions League for four years, Al-Faisaly defeated Nejmeh in the final. With it, Jordanian teams would win the next two AFC Cup seasons with Bahrain joining the league while Bangladesh was relegated to the AFC President's Cup until the tournament's abolition in 2014.

Al-Muharraq would break the trend in 2008 as they competed in the last two-legged final before it headed back into a one-leg system which still runs to this day.

On 23 December 2022, it was announced that the AFC competition structure would change from the established formats from the 2024–25 season. Under the new plans, the AFC Cup will be discontinued, and a new second-tier tournament called the AFC Champions League 2 will be introduced. Meanwhile, a new third-tier competition will also be launched under the name AFC Challenge League.

Turneringen blev etableret i 2004 som en erstatning for Asian Cup Winners' Cup og er åben for klubhold fra AFC's medlemsnationer, der ikke har kvalificeret sig til AFC Champions League.

AFC Cup spilles i et gruppeformat, efterfulgt af en knockout-fase. 32 hold deltager i gruppeturneringen, opdelt i otte grupper med fire hold i hver. De to bedste hold fra hver gruppe går videre til knockout-fasen, som består af runde af 16, kvartfinaler, semifinaler og finale.

Turneringen har været domineret af hold fra Vestasien, med syriske klubber, der har vundet tre titler, og qatarske klubber, der har vundet to titler.

AFC Cup giver vindere mulighed for at kvalificere sig til AFC Champions League og repræsenterer det næstbedste niveau af klubfodbold i Asien.
