with the 12 lowest-ranked teams in Serie A based on the previous league season's positions (unless they are to compete in European competition that year) begin the competition in the first round before August is over. The remaining eight Serie A teams join the competition in the third round in January, at which point 16 teams remain. The round of 16, the quarter-finals and the first leg of the semi-finals are then played in quick succession after the fourth round and the second leg of the semi-finals is played a couple of months later – in April – before the final in May. The two-legged final was eliminated for the 2007–08 edition and a single-match final is now played at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome. Winners by year Performance by club Trophies Notes The 1922 tournament was contested only by minor teams, the biggest clubs having left the FIGC to form a private league of their own. Although 75 tournaments have been contested, only 74 cups have been assigned. The 1926–27 tournament was cancelled in the round of 32. Finals In bold are the winners of the finals. Notes From 1968 to 1971, FIGC introduced a final group instead of semi-finals and finals. For statistical equity, only champions and runners-up of those groups are counted as finalists.
