2022 Hazfi Cup Final was the final match of the 35th edition of Hazfi Cup that was held between Nassaji Mazandaran and Aluminium Arak at Azadi Stadium in Tehran on 27 April 2022.[2]
Originally, the final was planned to be held at Yadegar-e Emam Stadium in Tabriz on above date.[3][4] However, the protest of the two clubs due to the distance between Qaemshahr and Arak to Tabriz caused the decision of the league organization to be changed.[5] After the official and written protest of the two clubs of Arak and Mazandaran, these protests were examined by the Iran Football League Organization (by order of the Minister Hamid Sajjadi) and they announced that their request for holding the final match in Azadi Stadium has been accepted.[6]
Nassaji Mazandaran defeated Aluminium Arak 1–0 to celebrate the first championship in the history of their club and also Hazfi Cup.[7]
