Israeli football clubs have competed in international football tournaments since 1967, when Hapoel Tel Aviv played in the inaugural Asian Champion Club Tournament. Israeli clubs Hapoel Tel Aviv and Maccabi Tel Aviv competed in all four editions of the Asian Champion Club Tournament before it was discontinued after 1971. The Israel Football Association was excluded from AFC competitions, and Israeli clubs were not invited to take part in the competition when it was renewed as the Asian Club Championship, which is now the AFC Champions League. Between 1976 and 1994, Israeli clubs took part in the Intertoto Cup, the only international club competition available, as the IFA wasn't affiliated to any confederation. Israel was admitted to UEFA in 1991 and Israeli clubs participated European football tournaments since 1992, when Maccabi Tel Aviv and Hapoel Petah Tikva played in the Champions League and the Cup Winners' Cup (respectively). Since 1992, Israeli clubs took part in the UEFA Champions League, UEFA Cup, UEFA Cup Winners' Cup, UEFA Europa League and UEFA Intertoto Cup.
