The Egyptian Super Cup is an Egyptian association football trophy contested in an annual match between the champions of the Egyptian Premier League and the winners of the Egyptian Cup. If a team wins The Double (both the Premier League and the Cup), then the Double winner plays the Premier League runner-up. The match is contested one week before starting the football season, and has been played since 2000/2001.

Famous quotes containing the words egyptian and/or cup:
“He will to his Egyptian dish again.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“I believe that water is the only drink for a wise man: wine is not so noble a liquor; and think of dashing the hopes of a morning with a cup of warm coffee, or of an evening with a dish of tea! Ah, how low I fall when I am tempted by them! Even music may be intoxicating. Such apparently slight causes destroyed Greece and Rome, and will destroy England and America.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
