The 2022–23 Scottish Cup was the 138th season of Scotland's most prestigious football knockout competition.

The defending champions, Rangers, who beat Heart of Midlothian in the 2022 Scottish Cup Final,[1] were defeated by Celtic in the semi-finals. VAR was used for the first time in the tournament.[2][3]

Celtic lifted the trophy for the 41st time after defeating Inverness Caledonian Thistle 3–1 in the final to complete a domestic treble.

Calendar[edit]

The calendar for the 2022–23 Scottish Cup was announced by the Scottish Football Association on 29 July 2022.[4] Starting this season, replays were abolished after the preliminary round. From the first round, matches tied after 90 minutes will go to extra time, and if still tied, to penalty kicks.[5]
