2015–16 Coppa Italia

The Coppa Italia (Italian for Italy Cup, officially known as TIM Cup because of its sponsorship) is an Italian football annual cup competition. Its first edition was held in 1922, but the second champions were not crowned until 1936. Juventus leads the way with ten wins, followed by Roma with nine. Roma has contested more finals, 17, while Juventus follow with 15. The holder can wear a "tricolore" cockade (Italian: coccarda), like the roundels that appear on military aircraft, and qualifies for a UEFA Europa League spot for the next season.

Format

The competition is a knockout tournament with pairings for each round made in advance; the draw for the whole competition is made before a ball is kicked. Each tie is played as a single leg, with the exception of the two-legged semi-finals. If a match is drawn, extra time is played. In the event of a draw after 120 minutes, a penalty shoot-out is contested. As well as being presented with the trophy, the winning team also qualifies for the UEFA Europa League (formerly named the UEFA Cup). If the winners have already qualified for the UEFA Champions League via Serie A, or are not entitled to play in UEFA competitions for any reason, the place goes to the next highest placed finisher in the league table.

Coccarda, winners' patch

There are a total of 8 rounds in the competition. The competition begins in August with the first round and is contested only by the lowest-ranked clubs – those outside the top two divisions. Clubs playing in Serie B join in in the second round and the twelve lowest-ranked teams in Serie A based on the previous league season's positions (unless they are to compete in European competition that year) begin the competition in the third round before August is over. The remaining eight Serie A teams join the competition in the fourth round in January, at which point sixteen teams remain. The round of 16, the quarter-finals and the first leg of the semi-finals are then played in quick succession after the Fourth Round and the second leg of the semi-final is played a couple of months later; in April before the May-contest final. The rather unusual two-leg final was eliminated since the 2007-08 edition and a single-match final is now played at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome.^[1]

Note: 1922 tournament was contested only by minor teams, the biggest clubs having left FIGC forming a private league.

Juventus will soon be "awarded" a silver star, in addition to the three golden ones already present, as they won the 2014-2015 Coppa Italia. Roma will be "awarded" a silver star, if they win another Coppa Italia. Stars are not awarded by any governing body. They are at the sole discretion of the club but the understanding is that its one star for every ten wins. A club could theoretically add as many stars as they wish to their shirt. Juventus started the tradition, adding a gold star after winning ten league titles and it has since been adopted by other clubs but there has never been an official recognition of a star for the cup or league. The idea of the silver star stems from mock Juventus shirts which were created in anticipation of the club winning a tenth cup title in 2012, a match which they lost and so the silver star never made an appearance and to date is no more than speculation stemming from fan art.

Note: from 1968 to 1971, FIGC introduced a final group instead of semifinals and finals. For statistical equity, only champions and runners-up of those groups are counted as finalists. Moreover, in 1971, a decisive match between the two best clubs was played to assign the cup.
