2015 Faroe Islands Cup

The Faroe Islands Cup (Faroese: Løgmanssteypið) is the main football cup competition in Faroe Islands. The first edition was played in 1955.

History

The first decade of the competition was marked by the alternance of titles between HB and TB. In subsequent editions, teams like B36, KÍ and currently inactive GÍ were also champions, but not enough to approach the number of titles of HB. However, in recent years, the cup has been dominated by EB/Streymur and Víkingur, which are in alternance of titles in the past eight editions and have already made 3 finals (all won by Víkingur).

Note
  1. ↑ HB and KÍ had reached the final, but KÍ refused to play the match at HB's homeground in Tórshavn; losing semifinalists VB were asked to play in their place but also refused; the FSF decided to annul the competition (instead of awarding HB the cup).
