Piala Indonesia (lit.'Indonesia Cup') is the professional annual cup competition for football clubs in Indonesia. Its origins date back to the semi-professional football era in 1985 as Piala Liga, which ran until 1989 under Galatama competition. The Football Association of Indonesia (PSSI) organized the full professional cup competition from 2005 until the most recent in 2018–2019. Traditionally, the tournament involves clubs from the whole layers of Indonesian football competitions, which are Super League, Championship, Liga Nusantara and Liga 4

Piala Indonesia winners qualify for the AFC Challenge League the following season. Since the start of the professional era in 2005, Sriwijaya is the most successful club in the competition, with three titles.[1]

History

The competition had its origins from the semi-professional football era in 1985 as Piala Liga (lit.'League Cup'), which ran until 1989 under Galatama competition. It started again in 1992 and 1994 as Piala Galatama.[2]

PSSI started the professional cup competition in 2005, under the name of Copa Dji Sam Soe Indonesia until 2009 for sponsorship reasons,[3] after which the name of the tournament was changed to the Piala Indonesia.[4] In 2012, after a one-year hiatus, the Indonesian football "dualism" meant only Indonesian Premier League (IPL) clubs competed; Persibo Bojonegoro won that year's Indonesia Cup.[5]

The competition returned for the 2018–19 edition after six years of not being held because it was at the time replaced by Piala Presiden.[6] In 2018, Kratingdaeng became the title sponsor of Piala Indonesia.[7]

The competition has not been held on several occasions, in 2015–16 due to the PSSI's ban on handling all of the football competitions by FIFA[8] and since 2020 partially due to the COVID-19 pandemic,[9][10] the lack of sponsor,[11] the election,[12] and geographical factors[13] that made it hard for clubs to play without rest.[14]

The competition will return for the 2027–28 season after eight years of hiatus.[15]
