Portugal Cup Format To Change Next Season

TSF Notícias Lisbon 14d14d Impact 5

The Portuguese Football Federation will change the rules for the Taça de Portugal starting next season. Semi-finals will now be played as single matches at neutral venues. The final will continue to be held at the Estádio Nacional in Jamor. Some Portuguese clubs have expressed disagreement with this new format. Under this schedule, the championship concludes, followed by the semi-finals one week later, and the final 15 days after that. The change aims to align the cup's structure with the Taça da Liga. The format change follows incidents involving players Vinicius Junior and an Argentine player during a Real Madrid match in February. The new model is described as being similar to the English cup format. The Taça de Portugal competition format will be altered starting next season, according to reports from Jornal Record.
