The 1946 Palestine Cup (Hebrew: הגביע הארץ-ישראלי, HaGavia HaEretz-Israeli) was the fourteenth season of Israeli Football Association's nationwide football cup competition.

The defending champion, Beitar Tel Aviv was eliminated in the first round after losing twice to Maccabi Nes Tziona. Hapoel Tel Aviv had difficulties throughout the competition, losing a match in the first round to minnows Hapoel Givatayim, and barely making it through the next round against Maccabi Rehovot, finally crashing to Hapoel Rishon LeZion in the quarter finals.

Maccabi Tel Aviv and Hapoel Rishon LeZion met in the two-legged final, Maccabi winning both legs to obtain its 5th cup.

Notes

  1. ^ Awarded. Hapoel Rehovot fielded 2 ineligible players.
  2. ^ The match was abandoned at the 65th minute due to the ball bursting. Beitar Petah Tikva was awarded a 0–3 victory.
  3. ^ Hapoel Balfouria won 2–0 originally, but was awarded a 3–0 win since Beitar Petah Tikva fielded ineligible players.
  4. ^ Hapoel Hadera originally won 3–0. The EIFA awarded the match to Hapoel HaTzafon Tel Aviv, as Hapoel Hadera appeared to the match without its players' EIFA member cards.
  5. ^ The match was abandoned at the 60th minute due to unruly behavior of Beitar Ramat Gan players and the result stood.
