2024–25 Czech Cup

The Czech Cup (Czech: Pohár FAČR), officially known as the MOL Cup for sponsorship reasons, is the major men's football cup competition in the Czech Republic. It is organised by the Czech Football Association.

The Czech Cup was first held in 1961. The winner would then face the winner of the Slovak Cup in the Czechoslovak Cup final. This competition was discontinued in 1993, after the dissolution of Czechoslovakia into two independent states (Czech Republic and Slovakia).

The winner gains entry to the following season's UEFA Europa League.

The competition took the name Volkswagen Cup before the 2004 final, but the sponsor ended its involvement in October of the same calendar year, before the fourth round of the 2004–05 edition.[1] In 2009, the competition became known as the Ondrášovka Cup after title sponsors, water brand Ondrášovka [cs].[2] In 2012, Česká pošta took over sponsorship from Ondrášovka, with the cup resultantly being called Pohár České pošty.[3] In 2015, the cup was renamed the MOL Cup after MOL became title sponsors of the Czech Cup, signing a three-year deal with an option for a further two.[4]
