2016 Supercupa României

The Supercupa României (English: Romanian Supercup) is a football competition, held at the beginning of each domestic season and disputed between the winners of Romanian Liga I and the winners of Romanian Cup. It was usually played at Arena Națională in Bucharest.

Contents

In 2010, for the first time in the competition's history, the Supercup was held even though CFR Cluj had achieved the double in the previous year. They faced Unirea Urziceni, the 2009–10 Liga I's runners-up. The final's venue was CFR's Stadionul Dr. Constantin Rădulescu, a privilege granted to CFR for their domestic honors earned in the previous season.

The competition started off in 1994. The most successful performers so far have been Steaua București with 6 wins, followed by Rapid București with 4.

Sponsorship

On July 22, 2005, FRF and Samsung Electronics signed a one-year sponsorship deal. The name of the competition was changed to Supercupa României Samsung for the 2005 and 2006 editions.

On October 9, 2006, FRF and Ursus Breweries (part of the SABMiller group) signed a sponsorship agreement for the next three seasons. Ursus Breweries changed the name of the competition to Supercupa României Timișoreana, after the Timișoreana beer brand.

Results of the finals


1 Because CFR Cluj won the double, Unirea Urziceni, the team that was the runner-up of the previous Liga I season, was chosen to play in the Romanian Supercup as their opponent. This rule was adopted in 2009.

2 Because Steaua București won the double, ASA Târgu Mureș, the team that was the runner-up of the previous Liga I season, was chosen to play in the Romanian Supercup as their opponent. This rule was adopted in 2009.
