26th Arabian Gulf Cup |
The Arabian Gulf Cup (Arabic: كأس الخليج العربي, Kaʾs al-Khalīj al-ʿArabī),[1][2][3] often referred to simply as the Gulf Cup,[4][5][6] is a biennial association football competition governed by the Arab Gulf Cup Football Federation for its eight member nations. The history of the competition has also seen it held every three to four years due to political or organisational problems.[7] The reigning champions are Iraq, having won their fourth title at the 25th edition, as hosts, held in 2023.
