 2025–26 Serbian Cup | |
TheSerbian Cup (Serbian: Куп Србије / Kup Srbije), also known asMozzart Serbian Cup for sponsorship reasons, is the nationalfootball cup ofSerbia. The winner of the competition gets a spot in theUEFA Europa League qualifying round.
Serbia's cup tournament is the legal successor to theSerbia and Montenegro Cup and in turn of theYugoslav Cup. This cup tournament lasted for four seasons up until the dissolution of the state union ofSerbia and Montenegro in 2006. The tournament was dominated bySerbian clubs with noMontenegrin sides reaching the final.Belgrade giantsRed Star were easily the most successful club, reaching the final all four years winning twice and losing in the final the other two seasons. Surprisingly,Red Star's cross-town rivalPartizan did not appear in a single final.
AfterMontenegro left the state union withSerbia in 2006, both football associations got to work on organizing a new tournament.
Before the tournament even began it was decided that Serbia's cup would have a new trophy and that the old one which was won by Red Star the year before would remain in its museum. However the association decided that the championship trophy would remain the same. To find a new trophy for the cup they decided to organise a contest at Belgrade's Art College where students would each make one and then a trophy would be selected. The Serbian Football Association officials presented the new trophy of the National Cup competition on Monday December 11, 2006. Artist Mihajlo Mlinar defeated 50 other students in the contest held at Belgrade's Art College. The trophy which is heavily inspired byEastern Orthodox Christianity as well as Serbian history was proclaimed as the perfect trophy for the biggest football competition in Serbia.
When the press asked Mlinar which club has his support, the 25-year-old answered that he simply never had a day of football training and that his only favorite isSerbia. Everybody present agreed that the student was the perfect candidate for making the trophy, and that he fully deserved the cash prize of 250,000 Serbian Dinars. Mlinar immediately became one of the most recognized faces acrossBelgrade. On May 15, 2007, at Partizan's stadium Red Star defeated Vojvodina to be the first ever Serbian Cup winner and the first team to lift the trophy that Mlinar created.
In 2006, Serbian FA agreed the marketing rights withCarlsberg Srbija, previously known as Pivara Čelarevo, and the competition was named after its main brandLav pivo. TheCarlsberg affiliate signed a deal to support the Serbian Cup for four years. The company will take out a sum of€1,000,000 which will be divided in four for every year of competition. That means that the awards annual budget is going to be€250,000. Along with the rewards from endorsements the winner of the Serbian Cup gets a spot in theUEFA Europa League if they are not already qualified throughSerbian SuperLiga.
