Al-Ittihad were the defending champions, but were eliminated in the semi-finals by Al-Hilal.[1]

Al-Hilal won their 5th title following a 2–1 win over Al-Qadisiyah in the final.[2]

The winner of the Crown Prince Cup earns automatic qualification to the 2006 AFC Champions League group stages. However, as Al-Hilal qualified for the AFC Champions League as league winners, Al-Shabab, the league runners-up, took this Champions League spot.

gollark: The only ways to make money are to post memes and get investment commissions, or to get someone else to throw away their money, and it happens that subsidies make it so that that other person can happily just throw away money forever and not be an actual person.
gollark: Make the system actually sane? This is the "problem" season 1 had with bots - it was broken so they could do a lot.
gollark: Evil idea: make a bot which reposts random memes off some niche subreddit (so nobody will notice) with the picture fuzzed a bit so repost detectors won't notice it.
gollark: Oops.
gollark: The irony...
