2011–12 Turkish Cup
2011–12 Turkish Cup (Turkish: Türkiye Kupası) was the 50th season of the Turkish Cup, won by Fenerbahçe. Ziraat Bankası was the sponsor of the tournament, thus the sponsored name was Ziraat Turkish Cup. The tournament began with first qualifying round matches played on 7 December 2011, and concluded at the 16 May 2012 final. As winners Fenerbahçe already secured a berth in 2012–13 UEFA Champions League through league position, the runners-up Bursaspor will enter 2012–13 UEFA Europa League in second qualifying round.[3] By winning the cup, Fenerbahçe qualified for the 2012 Turkish Super Cup.

Due to scheduling conflicts in the 2011–12 Süper Lig, a format change has been made this season. The group stage matches that were contested between 2005 and 2011 have been abandoned. A knockout tournament format has been adopted. Also the number of participating teams have been reduced from 72 to 57. The new format change had two stages. First, teams were contested in four consecutive rounds for qualifying. After the qualifying stage, a final stage was contested between the 8 remaining teams. All of the final stage matches were contested in neutral venues. Among the 57 teams to compete for the trophy, Beşiktaş were the defending champions, but were eliminated in the fourth round by Boluspor.[4]
