The 2019 Norwegian Football Cup final was the final match of the 2019 Norwegian Football Cup, the 114th season of the Norwegian Football Cup, the premier Norwegian football cup competition organized by the Norwegian Football Federation (NFF). The match was played on 8 December 2019 at the Ullevaal Stadion in Oslo, and opposed two Eliteserien sides, FK Haugesund and Viking FK. 8 December is the latest time of the year the Norwegian Cup Final has ever been played.[1]
Viking defeated Haugesund 1–0 to claim the Norwegian Cup for the sixth time in their history, the first time since 2001.[2] Viking's captain, Zlatko Tripić, scored the game-winning goal, a penalty after 51 minutes.[3][4] As a result, Viking qualified for the Europa League second qualifying round.
