Konica Cup (football)

The Konica Cup was a football cup competition in Japan, run by the Japan Soccer League as a prelude to the 1992 Summer Olympics. Only JSL First Division clubs were allowed to compete. Along with the JSL Cup it was a predecessor to the J. League Cup, but also involving the Japanese Olympic and Youth teams. The J. League Cup would later copy the format of a cup having only top division teams. No draws were allowed, instead draws were settled by extra time and penalty kicks.
