The rejistanian domestic cup saw its share of strangeness again, but let's begin in the first round:
Itamil Itera's amateurs met Karela Veran and defeated them 4:2 in the first match. Only to lose 1:8 in the home game. H4SR team Xuruma Veran thrashed H3SR side Ikiri Itera with a 8:2 aggregate score, and rejistanian champion Itamil Itera fell against the H3SR side Jieru Junis in a penalty kick thriller. The H9SR side Xikila Sekhika eliminated H3SR side Tekavi Viki, Aetaila Seli almost stumbled against Kaheril Sekhika from the H3SR, the amateurs of Hetkali and Ltianhama met in a reenactment of H1SR matches (and with an aggregate win of Hetkali), Hilak Hetaki (H4SR) and nantically-qualified Duriki Itera (H5SR) celebrated 13 goals in 2 matches and with TAHAI! and Tari!, the teams with exclamation marks in their names played each other.
In short: the pleasant craziness of the first round or kanvali mje'het reigned surpreme.
The second qualifiers or kanvali xi'het also had its share of strangeness:
H3SR team Lieta Lines dispatched the H4SR participants Xuruma Veran with an aggregate score of 10:0, Desnike Sekhika had the rotten luck of the draw and fell to Hades, as did Jinhes to the TAHAI! and last year's winner Maharis Maru to Xkora, Sike Veran struggled against nantical-finalist Janajama Yri but squeaked through, as did Liia Lines against H6SR sideNa~ovi-Hama~e Sidekhir thanks to a questionable decision by the referee, Uri Makin sent H2SR side Kalixalka Junis home, and Ltianhama Kimi eliminated Karela Veran in a celebration of takil (which saw 16 goals in 2 matches) and Matix Omeh defeated KaMaRi Iknel in 2 close matches. The biggest upset was H4SR side Simali Sekhika falling to Xikila Sekhika, a team which is currently located in the H9SR.
The 16th-finals, as the rejistanian name vinali'het mjeke sehim translates to, also saw some interesting matches:
Liia Lines defeated Sen-La-Sa~o Relekhati in a thriller which went to penalty kicks, Riandu Redy squeaked through against Sumumusumese H2SR side Shiakyl Sekhika, H9SR side Xikila Sekhika met Hades Lavamje in the match with the highest league disparity,punched way above its weight but fell to the tradition-rich H2SR side, Jieru Junis (H3SR) fell to the H4SR winner Lasane Telek kali in extra time in one of these seemingly pointless matches between 2 lower sides and in a similar match, the nantically-qualified non-league side Dimira Divensi defeated H3SR side Hulanuo Hetaki.
The 8th finals (which is what the rejistanian name vinali'het johim translates to) featured less really odd matches since by not, most of the really odd teams were defeated, but it had great matches of nearly equally skilled teams. The thriller between Matix Omeh and Lades Lavamje which had to be decided via penalty kicks was one of these matches, as was the thriller between Inkatil Inxaril and the TAHAI! which eliminated the exclamation mark team. In regular time, but with just 1 goal in total, Sike sent Na~ovi out of the competition and Karela Lines fell to non-league side Dimira Divensi. Jatujatu Divensi, a team which plays in the H2SR fell to the last remaining H4SR team: Lasane Telek kali.
Quarterfinals or Vinali'het mjihim is at least a cromulent word. And a word that doomed Ltianhama Kimi as well as Jinhes Junis, Inkatil Inxaril and Sike Veran. While the loss of Ltianhama against Hades and the one of Jinhes against Kalisimu in extra time are things which can happen, losing against The Team from Telek City and losing twice 0:2 against a non-league side are things which shouldn't but did.
Jinhes Junis 0-0 Kalisimu Salan (0-0 agg)
Kalisimu Salan 0-0 Jinhes Junis (1-0 AET, 1-0 agg)
Inkatil Inxaril 0-1 Lasane Telek kali (H4SR) (0-1 agg)
Lasane Telek kali (H4SR) 1-0 Inkatil Inxaril (2-0 agg)

Dimira Divensi (Heven Tanimesit, Nanti Korona) 2-0 Sike Veran (4-0 agg)
Hades Lavamje 3-1 Ltianhama Kimi (3-1 agg)
Ltianhama Kimi 1-2 Hades Lavamje (2-5 agg)
The semifinals or Vinali'het xihim saw, what now probably qualifies as an upset: Lasane Telek kali falling to Kalisimu Salan. And the non-league team Dimira Divensi went through as well.
Lasane Telek kali (H4SR) 0-1 Kalisimu Salan (0-1 agg)
Kalisimu Salan 1-0 Lasane Telek kali (H4SR) (2-0 agg)
Dimira Divensi (Heven Tanimesit, Nanti Korona) 0-0 Hades Lavamje (0-0 agg)
Hades Lavamje 0-0 Dimira Divensi (Heven Tanimesit, Nanti Korona) (0-1 AET, 0-1 agg)
In the Vinali'het or final Kalisimu Salan met the non-league team Dimira Divensi. And the magic ended after the first match. In the return match, Dimira conceded and lost. Kalisimu Salan win their first cup.
Kalisimu Salan 1-1 Dimira Divensi (Heven Tanimesit, Nanti Korona)
(Kia Samerii 4th, Naivan Maru 59th)
Dimira Divensi (Heven Tanimesit, Nanti Korona) 0-2 Kalisimu Salan (1-3 agg)
(Kia Samerii 80th, Xasnu Sinkit 85th)
