Yugoslav Cup
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Yugoslav Cup was one of two major football (soccer) competitions in the former Yugoslavia, the other being the Yugoslav League Championship. The Yugoslav Cup took place after the league championships (every competitive league in Yugoslavia), in order to determine which teams are ranked as their corresponding seeds. The tournament remained intact even after the breakup of Yugoslavia with Montenegro and Serbia remaining in a union under the name Yugoslavia. The tournament would continue until 2003 when FR Yugoslavia changed it's name to Serbia and Montenegro the cup followed suite and was renamed the Serbia and Montenegro Cup.

[edit] Competition format
The competition format was an elimination championship where every competitive team was offered a chance to enter. Beginning in the lowest tiers of teams, the competition followed a one-game elimination format. Higher tier teams got berths in the second round, third round, and so on. The First League (Prva Liga) teams always began in the 1/16 finals, and the rest of the 16 berths being filled by lower tier teams who managed to make it to the round of 32.
Once the round of 16 was reached, the format would be changed to a two-game elimination format, being played at home and away for each team. At this point it became a First League ordeal, as the smaller teams had zero chance against the titans of Yugoslavian football. Historically, the finals were usually reached only by the better performing First League teams (Partizan, Hajduk, C. Zvezda, Dinamo, etc).
