The Guangdong–Hong Kong Cup (simplified Chinese: 省港杯; traditional Chinese: 省港盃) is a football competition between two teams representing Hong Kong and Guangdong Province of China respectively. It was established in 1979.[1]

History

[edit]

In April 1977, the Guangdong team visited Hong Kong for the first time and played two friendly matches. Within its staying period, the officials of Guangdong and Hong Kong football started a discussion on the possibility of establishing an annual competition between them.

In June 1978, the Hong Kong national football team visited China and finished its trip with a match against the Guangdong team. HKFA chairman Mr. Hui Chun Fui and the official in Guangdong then reached a basic agreement of having a competition between the teams again next year.

On 7 December 1978, the contract of establishing Guangdong–Hong Kong Cup was signed. The first competition started on 21 January 1979.
