The 1991-92 Soviet Cup was the last edition of an already non-existing political entity, the Soviet Union. In the spring of 1992, all three remaining Ukrainian clubs withdrew from the competition leaving only Russian and Central Asian clubs to contest the main trophy. Because of that only one game was played during the competition's quarterfinals, while a club from Tajikistan, Pamir Dushanbe, advanced to the semifinals where it was eliminated.

The winner of the competition, Spartak Moscow, qualified for the continental tournament representing Russia.

Second round

Following the dissolution of the Soviet Union on December 25, 1991, clubs from around the fallen Soviet Union refused their further participation among which were Ukrainian clubs who effectively forfeiting their chances at the Cup, Belarusian Dinamo Minsk, Kazakhstani Khimik Dzhambul, and others, leaving only Pamir Dushanbe as the non-Russian club still in the competition. Ukrainian clubs with leftover fixtures among themselves played the matches as friendlies.

Remarkable is the fact that one of the games took place in the already seceded Georgia that was conducted its own competitions (Georgian Cup). This can be explained by the fact that the stadium was located in the pro-Russian Abkhazia region.
