Icelandic Super Cup
The Icelandic Super Cup (Icelandic: Meistarakeppni karla) is an annual football game between the reigning champions of the Icelandic League (Úrvalsdeild) champions and the Icelandic Cup holders (or, if the same team holds both titles, between the title-holder and (usually) the team in second place in the Úrvalsdeild or occasionally the second placed team in the Icelandic Cup). It generally takes place at the start of the Iceland domestic season, in May and has been running uninterrupted since 2003 (when the holders of the 2002 titles met). Before that the competition had been ongoing uninterrupted between 1969 and 1999. Title-holders from 1999, 2000 and 2001 didn't play for this title.
The most successful team is Valur with a total of eight wins.
Past Finals
[1] There were two games played in 1996 and 1998, one in the spring and one in the autumn, with the spring-game covering the year before and the autumn-game covering the just-finished season. For easier understanding the years listed are always the year after a team won the Úrvalsdeild or Cup (so the autumn games are listed as having been played the year after they were played).
