The Iraqi Super Cup (Arabic: كأس السوبر العراقي), previously called Iraqi Perseverance Cup (Arabic: كأس المثابرة العراقي), is Iraqi football's annual match contested between the champions of the previous Iraq Stars League season and the holders of the Iraq FA Cup. If the Stars League champions also won the FA Cup then the league runners-up provide the opposition. The fixture is a recognised football super cup. Extra-time is not played in the case of a draw; the game goes straight to penalties instead.
It took another eleven years for the tournament to resume, returning in 1997 as a match between the winners of the Iraqi Premier League and the Iraq FA Cup. The 1997 and 1998 editions were played at the end of the season to bring a close to the campaign, but from 1999 onwards, the cup was played before the start of the following league season as a 'curtain-raiser' to the new league campaign.
From the 2003–04 season until the 2014–15 season, the Iraq FA Cup was either not played or not completed. It was finally completed in 2015–16, and therefore the Iraqi Perseverance Cup under the new name of Iraqi Super Cup was scheduled to be played in August of that year, but it was cancelled due to scheduling difficulties. The Iraqi Super Cup eventually returned in 2017.
Rules
The rules of the Super Cup are generally the same as those of the Stars League, with a team of 11 starting players and 9 substitutes, with five substitutions permitted. If the scores are level after 90 minutes, the teams play a penalty shootout. If a team wins both the Stars League and the FA Cup, the runner-up from the Stars League will play.
