Coppa Titano 2008β09 was the forty-ninth season of
San Marino's oldest
football competition. It began on 2 October 2008 with the first games of the Group Stage and ended on 4 May 2009 with the Final held at
Stadio Olimpico,
Serravalle.
Murata were the defending champions. The winners of the competition earned a place in the
second qualifying round of the UEFA Europa League 2009β10.
Competition format
The competition consisted of two stages, the Group Stage and the Elimination Rounds. The Group Stage consisted of three groups with five teams each. Every team played two games (once home and once away) against every other team of its group. The top two teams from each group, as well as the two best third-placed teams, qualified for the Elimination Rounds. The Elimination Rounds were a single-game elimination tournament. Games in the Elimination Rounds were decided by
extra time and, if necessary, a
penalty shootout.
