Tagblatt Pokal
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Tagblatt-Pokal was the first football competition in Austria played in a league format. It was founded by the Neue Wiener Tagblatt,[1] and was restricted to clubs in Vienna. Nevertheless, and despite the existence of the Challenge Cup, which was open to all football clubs in Austria-Hungary, it is regarded as a forerunner of the Austrian football championship.[2] The trophy was awarded permanently to Wiener AC in 1903 after they had won it three times.[3]
