The 1992 Umm Al-Ma'arik Cup is the second occurrence of the Umm Al-Ma'arik Cup. Unlike the last season where the competition was organized by Al-Talaba SC, this season was organized by the Iraq Football Association. The top eight of the Iraqi League competed in the tournament. The competition started on 2 July 1992 and ended on 17 July 1992 where, in the final, held at Al-Shaab Stadium, Al-Talaba defeated Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya after extra time.[1]
Background
After the Iraq Football Association adopted the Umm Al-Ma'arik Cup, they held a meeting on 16 June 1992 to start the second edition of the competition which was decided to be from 2–17 July 1992 with the participation of the top eight teams from the 1991–92 Iraqi League, instead of the top six, which included Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya, Al-Zawra'a, Al-Karkh, Al-Talaba, Al-Shorta, Najaf, Al-Tayaran and Al-Naft. The FA set the matches to be played at Al-Shaab Stadium, Al-Kashafa Stadium and Al-Shorta Stadium.[2]
