Competition overview

Competitions for the Soviet Cup in 1984 were held on a knockout system with the participation of 48 teams (18 Top league teams, 21 First and 9 Second league teams).

In the Cup tournament bracket, all 48 teams were seeded by lot draw.

On February 18, 32 teams began competitions including 21 of 22 teams of the First league (Shinnik Yaroslavl did not participate in the Cup due to a sanction for failure to appear to a game last season), 2 teams that received the right to play in the Top league (promotion), 6 zone winners of the Second league [lower-alpha 1] and 3 teams relegated from the First league at the end of last year (Dnepr Mogilev, Tekstilschik Ivanovo, Dinamo Kirov).

16 Top league teams started in the Round of 32.

If in the 1/32 finals the teams won on their home turf, then in the next round they played on the opponents’ turfs, and those teams that won the first round away played on their home turfs. To determine the location of subsequent meetings, a record of the number of visiting and hosting of teams has been kept. In case of equality of visiting and hosting, the home team was determined by lot.

If the game, including the final, would end in a draw, extra time was assigned (two periods of 15 minutes each). If extra time did not reveal the strongest, the winner would have been determined by penalty kicks in accordance with FIFA Regulations. In games for the Soviet Cup, no more than three players are allowed to be substituted during the game. The final is held on June 24 in Moscow, at the Central Stadium named after V.I. Lenin.
