Addition
As previously reported by UNN, in July, the Ukrainian Association of Football presented an updated format for the Ukrainian Cup 2025/2026 season, which provides for an increase in the number of teams to 68, including amateur ones. Changes will affect the regulations for matches, prize money distribution, and the draw system.
The winners of single-match confrontations will advance to the 1/8 finals. In case of a draw in regular time, the winner will be determined immediately by a penalty shootout.
