The 2015 United Football League Cup is the sixth edition of the United Football League Cup which started on May 2 and ended on August 28, 2015. This edition was supposed to be held in 2014 but the kick off was moved to 2015 with the main objective to eventually align league schedules with ASEAN neighbors.[1]

Loyola Meralco Sparks are the defending champions.[2]

The 20 teams which participated at the tournament were distributed into four groups for the group stage. All group stage matches will take place at the Rizal Memorial Stadium.[3]

Kaya were crowned champions and qualified for a play-off spot at the 2016 AFC Cup.[4]

Group stage

[edit]
Tiebreakers

The teams are ranked according to points (3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw, 0 points for a loss). If tied on points, tiebreakers are applied in the following order:[5]

  1. Goal difference in all the group matches;
  2. Greater number of goals scored in all the group matches;
  3. If, after applying criteria 1 and 2, teams still have an equal ranking, criteria 1 and 2 are reapplied exclusively to the matches between the teams in question to determine their final rankings. If this procedure does not lead to a decision, criteria 4 to 8 apply;
  4. Penalty shoot-out if only two teams are involved and they are both on the field of play;
  5. Fewest red cards
  6. Fewest yellow cards
  7. Team who belongs to the member association with the higher AFC ranking.
  8. Drawing of lots, coin toss or play-off match as determined by the Executive Committee
