If the game, including the final, would end in a draw, extra time was assigned (two halves of 15 minutes each). If extra time did not reveal the strongest team, the winner was determined by penalty kicks in accordance with FIFA regulations.
In games for the Soviet Cup, three players are allowed to be substituted during the game.
The final was held on May 9, Victory Day, at the Central Stadium named after V.I. Lenin in Moscow.
