Toto Cup

The Israel Toto Cup (Hebrew: גביע הטוטו, Gvia Ha'Toto) is an association football tournament that features clubs in the two highest divisions in Israel: the Israeli Premier League a.k.a.

Both of these leagues are featured separately for the Israel Toto Cup – at a distinct seasonal tournament for each of these two.

From 1999 to 2009, the tournament was also open to clubs from the third division, until the cancellation of Liga Artzit.

In 1975–76 a League Cup competition was played, won by Hapoel Hadera (in Liga Leumit) and Maccabi Ramat Amidar (in Liga Alef), but the competition wasn't played again in the following seasons.

In the 2013–14 season, the Toto Cup was not played due to a disagreement between the Israeli Sports Betting Council and the IFA following the publication of a report by a committee headed by Yaron Zelekha which was set up to examine the way football in Israel was managed.

[7][8] The IFA and the Israeli Sports Betting Council reached an agreement in October 2013, which confirmed the cancellation of the 2013–14 competitions.

From the quarterfinals and above if a match is drawn, the game is settled with extra time and penalty shootouts.
