The Malaysia Futsal Cup (abbreviated as the MFC) is an annual futsal club competition in Malaysia organised by the Football Association of Malaysia (FAM). Teams qualify for the competition based on their performance in the Malaysia Premier Futsal League (MPFL).

Contents

6 teams from MPFL Division 1 and 2 teams from MPFL Division 2 qualify directly. The winners of the competition are awarded with a slot to compete in the AFF Futsal Club Championship. Selangor MAC were the inaugural winners of the competition, having beaten Pahang Rangers 4–3 in the 2022 final. [1]

Selangor are the current champions, having beaten Pahang Rangers 13–3 in the 2025 final for their second title.

History

The first Malaysia Futsal Cup featured Negeri Sembilan, Pahang Rangers, PDRM, Pulau Pinang, Selangor MAC, Selangor TOT United, Shah Alam City and Terengganu. The inaugural match of the Malaysia Futsal Cup was held on 11 June 2022 and saw Selangor MAC secure a victory over Shah Alam City with a score of 2–1 at the Panasonic Sport Complex in Shah Alam. The historic first goal was scored by Silva Matheus Vasconcelos of Selangor MAC.

The tournament culminated with the inaugural final on 23 July. The final featured Selangor MAC and Pahang Rangers. In a dramatic showdown, Selangor MAC emerged victorious with a 4–3 score, securing their place in the annals of the Malaysian futsal history. Ridzwan Bakri of Pahang Rangers and Amirul Radzi of Pulau Pinang shared the honour of being the inaugural top scorers, each netting six goals.

The 2025 edition saw Selangor become the first team to win the competition twice after delivering a record-breaking 13–3 victory over the Pahang Rangers in the final. Brazilian player Vitor Fernandes was instrumental in this historic win, scoring eight of the team's goals. [2]

Competition format

Qualification

Starting in 2025, the top six teams from MPFL Division 1 will automatically qualify for the main round of the competition, securing their places based on their performance throughout the season. Unlike the previous format, the two bottom teams from Division 1 will no longer qualify. Instead, the champion and runner-up of MPFL Division 2 will take the final two spots. [3]

Knockout stage

The format of the Malaysia Futsal Cup is structured around the knockout stage that begins with the quarterfinals. Each round is played over two legs, with home and away matches ensuring opportunity for both teams to perform on their home ground. For the third-place playoff and the final, matches are taking place at a neutral venue.
