The Vietnam Football Federation Cup or VFF Cup was an annual football tournament organised in Vietnam. The organisation of the tournament was announced on August 19, 2004, replacing the Independence Cup. and was played from 2004 to 2011 with the Vietnamese Football Federation announcing in 2012 that the competition would no longer be played. Every year the tournament is held at the My Dinh National Stadium in Hanoi. In 2008 the tournament was renamed due to the withdrawal of the Vietnam Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development as the main sponsor. Participants are either club teams or national teams, but the Vietnam national team is always a participant.

Famous quotes containing the word cup:
“I write mainly for the kindly race of women. I am their sister, and in no way exempt from their sorrowful lot. I have drank [sic] the cup of their limitations to the dregs, and if my experience can help any sad or doubtful woman to outleap her own shadow, and to stand bravely out in the sunshine to meet her destiny, whatever it may be, I shall have done well; I have not written this book in vain.”
—Amelia E. Barr (1831–1919)
