2022 Telekom Cup

The competition features four teams of the Bundesliga, playing two semi-finals and a final. Up until 2015, a match lasted 60 minutes, with each half 30 minutes long. The tournament would be over two days, with two games in each day. In 2015 the rules changed, where there would only be one 45 minute period, and all four matches take place in the same day. The event took place in Gelsenkirchen in 2009[1] and 2010,[2] Mainz in 2011, Hamburg in 2012, Mönchengladbach in 2013, again in Hamburg for the 2014 edition, and again in Mönchengladbach in 2015. It was announced that no 2016 tournament would be held.

The next tournament was held in January 2017, with the tournament taking place in Düsseldorf.[3] The tournament was held next in July 2017, taking place in Mönchengladbach.[4] Bayern Munich hold the most titles, with five. They are the only team to have participated in the first nine editions of the tournament.[5]

After a break of two years due to the COVID-19 pandemic, a single-match edition of the tournament took place in 2022 in Cologne; it saw 1. FC Köln face A.C. Milan, the latter winning its first title.
