Palestine Cup of Nations

The Palestine Cup (Arabic: كأس فلسطين, romanized: Kaʾs Filasṭīn) was a football competition which was held between countries in the Arab world.

The tournament de facto acted as the replacement for the Arab Cup during the long interruption between 1966 and 1982, it held on three occasions in Arab countries in the 1970s.

The cup was established in 1972 at the initiative of Said al-Sabeh, president of the Supreme Council for Palestinian Youth Welfare.

The tournament was also created to be an alternative to the Arab Cup, which had been suspended after the third edition.

Iraq was chosen to host the first edition in the same year, and eight Arab countries took part in the tournament, but only three editions were organised.
