2012 Singapore League Cup

The 2012 Singapore League Cup (known as the StarHub League Cup for sponsorship purposes) was held between 26 July to 11 August 2012. Traditionally held as a knockout competition, the 2012 edition saw a new format where four groups of three teams battled it out for a place in the semi-finals. In addition, the four teams that finished third in their respective groups played in a separate Plate Competition consisting of two semi-finals and a final.[1]

The draw for the Cup was held on Thursday, 12 July 2012 at the Football Association of Singapore's headquarters in Jalan Besar Stadium, Singapore. While 12 teams from the S.League will playing in the StarHub League Cup, Malaysia’s Harimau Muda A did not be participating in this competition. This was because the Young Tigers had earlier served notice that they were invited for another tournament in Austria scheduled for the same Muslim fasting month period.[3]

StarHub broadcast both semi-finals and the final ‘live’ on its sports channel, SuperSports Arena.
