The Ukrainian Cup 1972 was a football knockout competition conducting by the Football Federation of Ukrainian SSR and was known as the Ukrainian Cup.

The Cup started with the preliminary round on November 4, 1972, and involved the republican level non-amateur clubs. The main event started from the round of 16 on November 8, 1972, when other clubs joined the competition such as Shakhtar, Chornomorets, Metalist, and others, while some of them represented by their second squad. Dynamo Kyiv has chosen not to participate in it since its last winning season in 1948. The competition concluded in just over two weeks in Kiev on November 19. Note that the tournament took place after the Soviet football season was over and was conducted in rather unsupported weather conditions as the cold period in Ukraine starts usually in September or October, depending on location.
