The 2016 version of the Syrian Cup is the 46th edition to be played. It is the premier knockout tournament for football teams in Syria. Al-Wahda are the defending champions.[1] [2] [3]
The competition has been disrupted because of the ongoing Syrian Civil War, where some games have been awarded as 3:0 victories due to teams not being able to compete.
The winners of the competition will enter the 2017 AFC Cup qualifying playoffs.
