Competition system
However, in the 2005-06 King's Cup competition system reform, low-level teams had to go through several rounds of elimination to meet first-class teams, which reduced the number of matches and the possibility of unexpected matches for La Liga teams, but also greatly reduced the income of many low-level teams.
Starting from the 2019/20 season, except for the semi-final of the King's Cup, which is still a double turn system of subject and object, all other competitions have been changed to a single game deciding game system. If the two teams play at different league levels, the lower league team will gain home advantage; At the same level, the team that won the first place in the lottery won the home court advantage.
