# 2024 Copa FFTL

The 2024 Copa FFTL, also known as the FFTL Cup, is a men's association football competition in Timor-Leste. The tournament was organised by the East Timor Football Federation, taking place instead of the Liga Futebol Timor-Leste league season.
Initially teams from the top two divisions of the Liga Futebol Timor-Leste were expected to compete, filling the void of no other national competitions taking place throughout the year and creating a platform for the East Timorese national team to prepare for their upcoming international fixtures in the AFC Asian Cup and ASEAN Championship qualifiers. After the competition had been announced however multiple teams were reported as disagreeing with the FFTL's organisation of the tournament, noting that there was a lack of any formal consultation between clubs and the football federation taking place before the competition was announced. This, alongside a lack of financial support to teams provided resulted in only a few teams from the top two divisions being registered for the competition, these being Lica-Lica Lemorai, DIT FC and FIEL FC. The rest of the tournament was made up of other new and existing teams from the nation competing in the competition.
The competition was a successor to the 2020 Copa FFTL. The final of the competition was won by São José FC, beating B2B FC 1-0 in a final held at the Estadiu Munisipal Díli. The winner of the competition received a prize of $15,000 USD, 2nd and 3rd place received $10,000 and $5,000.
