List of FIFA Arab Cup finals
Football tournament
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The FIFA Arab Cup is an association football competition established in 1963. It is contested by the men's national teams of the members of the Union of Arab Football Associations (UAFA), the governing body of football for countries in the Arab world and takes place generally every four years. The winners of the first tournament were Tunisia, who won in a round-robin style tournament. The first final was in 1966, where Iraq defeated Syria 2–1 in Baghdad. The most recent final, hosted in Lusail in 2025, saw Morocco defeat Jordan 3–2 after extra time. The FIFA Arab Cup final is the last match of the competition and the result determines which country's team is declared Arab champion. As of the 2025 tournament, if after 90 minutes of regular play the score is a draw, an additional 30-minute period of extra time is added. If such a game is still tied after extra time, it is decided by penalty shoot-out. The team that wins the penalty shoot-out are then declared champions.
