The Victory Cup (Creeperian Spanish: Copa de la'Victoria; sometimes rendered as the 1951 Victory Cup), officially known as the National Romerist Cup of the Catholic and Imperial Victory over Atheism and Miguelism (Copa Romeristo Nacional de la'Victoria Católico y Imperial contra'l Ateísmo y Miguelismo;[note 1] abbreviated CORONA), was a Creeperian domestic football tournament which was held in 1951 to celebrate the Catholic Imperial Restoration Council (Imperial Council) victory during the eighteen year-long Creeperian Civil War (1933–1949).
The civil war brought an abrupt end to all sporting events in Creeperopolis, including the Liga Nacional when ended with the 1932 season. The 1933 was scheduled to begin on 8 January 1933, only seven days after the civil war began on 2 January 1933. Due to nearly twenty years of no professional football being played, the National Football Association (ANF) decided to start over with the teams that qualify for the next season of Creeperian league football. To determine which twelve clubs would qualify for the 1952–53 Liga Primera, renamed due to potential association with the National Council for Peace and Order (National Council) which lost the civil war, the ANF held a large tournament involving all of Creeperopolis' football clubs, and the top twelve ranked clubs qualified for the Liga Primera.
