UEFA Cup Winners' Cup

The UEFA Cup Winners' Cup (also known as the European Cup Winners' Cup) was a football club competition contested annually by the most recent winners of all European domestic cup competitions. The cup is one of the many inter-European club competitions that have been organised by UEFA. The first competition was held in the 1960/61 season, and the last in 1998/99. The competition was then abolished to make way for a further expansion to the UEFA Champions League, with domestic cup winners now gaining entry into the UEFA Cup.

Prior to its abolition, the Cup Winners' Cup was regarded as the second most prestigious European club competition out of the three major tournaments, behind the UEFA Champions League/European Cup and ahead of the UEFA Cup, although many commentators felt the Cup Winners' Cup was the easier of the three competitions to win.

From its inception until 1994, the competition was known as the 'European Cup Winners' Cup' - from the 1994/95 season onwards, UEFA officially named the tournament the 'UEFA Cup Winners' Cup'. The competition is also sometimes referred to as European Cup 2, EC2 or simply C2, usually in football statistics books and websites, although this shorthand was also used on some match tickets and in programmes. Despite the abolition of the Cup Winners' Cup, the modern UEFA Cup is still referred to in shorthand as EC3, in order to avoid confusion with the CWC.

Format

Throughout its 39-year history, the Cup Winners' Cup was always a straight knock-out tournament with two-legged home and away ties up until the single match final staged at a neutral venue, the only exception to this being the two-legged final in the competition's first year. The format was identical to the original European Champions' Cup with 32 teams contesting four knock-out rounds prior to the showpiece final, with the tournament usually running from September to May each year. In later years, a regular August preliminary round was added to reduce the number of entrants to 32 following the influx of new UEFA member nations during the 1990s.

Entry was restricted to one club from each UEFA member association, the only exception being to allow the current Cup Winners' Cup holders to enter alongside their nation's new domestic cup winners in order to allow them a chance to defend their CWC title. However, if this team also qualified for the European Champions' Cup then they would default on their place in the Cup Winners' Cup and no other team would replace them.

On occasions when a club completed a domestic league and cup 'double' that club would enter the European Cup/UEFA Champions League and their place in the Cup Winners' Cup would be taken by the domestic cup runners-up. In 1998/99, the competition's final year, SC Heerenveen of the Netherlands entered the CWC despite only reaching the semi-final of the previous season's Dutch Cup. This was due to both Dutch Cup finalists Ajax Amsterdam and PSV Eindhoven qualifying for the recently expanded Champions League. Heerenveen won a third-place playoff and became the only club to enter the Cup Winners' Cup without having contested their own domestic cup final the previous year.

History

Inauguration

Mirroring the circumstances behind the creation of the European Cup five years earlier, the idea for a pan-European cup competition contested by all of Europe's domestic cup winners came from prominent European sports journalists. The European Cup had proven to be a great success and the Fairs Cup had also proven popular - as a result, other ideas for new European football tournaments were being aired. One proposal was for a tournament based upon the format of the Champions' Cup, but with national cup winners rather than champions taking part, which could run alongside that competition. The UEFA Champions League (also known as the European Cup, CE1, C1[1] or CL) is a seasonal club football competition organized by the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) since 1955 for the most successful football clubs in Europe. ... The Inter-Cities Fairs Cup was a European football competition played between 1955 and 1970. ...


The inaugural Cup Winners' Cup was held in the 1960/61 season and was basically a semi-official pilot tournament. However the initial reaction to the competition's creation was unenthusiastic on the part of many of Europe's top clubs - many European associations did not have domestic cup competitions at the time and in those countries that did, the cup competition was generally held in low esteem and often not taken seriously by the bigger clubs. It was essentially only in England and Scotland that the domestic cup was considered especially prestigious. Many were sceptical about the viability of a European tournament for cup winners and many of the bigger clubs eligible to contest the first CWC turned down the chance to enter, such as Atlético Madrid of Spain and AS Monaco of France. Club Atlético de Madrid is a Spanish football club based in Madrid. ... The Association Sportive de Monaco Football Club is a Monegasque football club, founded in 1924. ...


Ultimately the inaugural CWC was contested by just 10 clubs (with Fiorentina of Italy winning the two-legged final against the Scottish team Rangers) but the games were generally well attended and the response from the public and the media to the new tournament was positive and enthusiastic. For the tournament's second season in 1961/62, UEFA took over the running of all aspects of the competition and this time all the clubs eligible to enter accepted the opportunity. By 1968, all UEFA member nations had set up domestic cup competitions due to the success of the Cup Winners' Cup which by then had firmly established itself as Europe's second most prestigious club competition.

Prestige

The Cup Winners' Cup was a key component of the European football calendar throughout the 1970s and 1980s. The cup was regarded by UEFA as its second most important club competition, even though the tournament was felt to be weaker than both the European Cup and the UEFA Cup in terms of the overall quality of the teams taking part. The tournament gained a reputation for showcasing attacking, entertaining football and also for the remarkable number of spectacular long range goals in many of the finals.

Notable sides to have won the Cup Winners' Cup include:

  • A.C. Milan in 1968, who went on to follow up this success with victory in the European Champions' Cup the following year, making them only one of two clubs to achieve the feat of winning the Cup Winners' Cup and European Cup in consecutive seasons.
  • Rangers F.C. in 1972. This victory was significant due to the notably difficult route Rangers had to the final, including victory over the famous Bayern Munchen team of Franz Beckenbauer. It was also Rangers' third final, and the victory sparked a pitch invasion by their fans. Because of this Rangers were forbidden by UEFA to defend their trophy, and it was awarded inside the stadium.
  • R.S.C. Anderlecht who won the CWC in 1976, then losing the final the following year before returning in 1978 to claim the trophy for the second time in three years
  • Dinamo Tbilisi won the CWC in 1981 with a spectacular side that defeated West Ham United home and away before beating Carl Zeiss Jena in the competitions most poorly attended final (7,000 in Dusseldorf). This win was the high point of that Georgian side and is still the Club's greatest achievement.
  • Michel Platini's Juventus won the trophy in 1984 and then become the second team after A.C. Milan to follow victory in the Cup Winners' Cup with a successful European Cup campaign
  • The Everton side of 1985 which claimed the Cup Winners' Cup and the English league title in the same season
  • In 1988 KV Mechelen became one of only a handfull of clubs to win a European cup in their first ever European campaign.
  • Manchester United who won the competition in 1991, becoming the first English team to win a European trophy since the Heysel Disaster had forced English clubs into a five-year ban from European competition. Sir Alex Ferguson became one of very few managers to lead two separate clubs to success in the competition
  • In 1995, Real Zaragoza won the cup, with an incredible goal of Nayim, he scored in the last minute of the extra time from near the halfway line of the pitch.
  • Sven-Göran Eriksson's expensively assembled S.S. Lazio side which won the final CWC tournament in 1999

No club managed to retain the Cup Winners' Cup (the so-called "CWC jinx"), although FC Barcelona won it on four occasions (1979, 82, 89, 97) and finished runners up twice (1969, 91). R.S.C. Anderlecht won it twice (1976, 78), and finished runners up twice (1977, 90); in addition, four finals over five years between 1993 and 1997 saw the holder reach the final only to lose (Parma F.C. 1993 and 1994, Arsenal F.C. 1994 and 1995, Paris Saint Germain 1996 - 1997).

Decline

After the establishment of the UEFA Champions League (formerly called the European Champions' Cup) in the early 1990s, the standing and prestige of the Cup Winners' Cup began to decline. With the expansion of the Champions League in 1997 to allow more than one team from the highest ranked member associations to enter, the CWC began to look noticeably inferior. At the time of the Champions League expansion, UEFA also considered expanding the CWC from 32 teams to 64 by allowing a second team to enter from many countries, although by what qualification criteria the second entrants would be determined were never settled upon - ultimately UEFA did not make any of these changes to the CWC. Many of the bigger teams who would previously have entered the CWC were now gaining entry to the Champions League instead by finishing second in their domestic league - such as CWC holders FC Barcelona in 1997/98 and Bayern Munich and PSV Eindhoven in 1998/99 - and this greatly weakened the CWC. Furthermore, in some countries like France, it wasn't rare to see second or third division teams arriving to the final of the cup and sometimes even winning it. The presence of second division teams in the CWC was another element that made the CWC look more inferior. The UEFA Champions League (also known as the European Cup, CE1, C1[1] or CL) is a seasonal club football competition organized by the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) since 1955 for the most successful football clubs in Europe. ...

Philips Sport Vereniging (English: Philips Sports Union), widely known either as PSV or PSV Eindhoven, is a sports club from Eindhoven, Netherlands. ...


By the late 1990s, the CWC had come to be seen as a second-rate competition with only one or two big name teams available to enter each year and the interest in the tournament from both major clubs and the public dropped. Finally, with the further expansion of the UEFA Champions League to include as many as three or four teams from the top footballing nations, any continuation of the CWC essentially became impossible due to the potential lack of teams available to take part from many European countries and the decision was taken to abolish the competition after the end of the 1998/99 tournament, which was won by S.S. Lazio. Since then, domestic cup winners who do not otherwise qualify for the Champions League are given a place in the UEFA Cup. S.S.
