The 1992 CONCACAF Champions' Cup, also known as the American Airlines Cup for sponsorship reasons,[1] was the 28th edition of the annual international club football competition held in the CONCACAF region (North America, Central America and the Caribbean), the CONCACAF Champions' Cup. It determined that year's club champion of football in the CONCACAF region and was played from 1 February 1992 until 5 January 1993.
The teams were split in 2 zones (North/Central and Caribbean), each one qualifying two teams to the final tournament. All qualifying matches were played under the home/away match system, while the final was played in California. Both zones were also split into 2 groups, so one team of each qualified to the finals.
Unlike previous editions, the final was a single match played in Los Angeles (neutral venue), where Mexican Club América beat Costa Rican Liga Deportiva Alajuelense 1–0,[2] therefore winning their four CONCACAF trophy.[3][4] The Vancouver 86ers became the first Canadian team to qualify for the tournament, but ultimately withdrew before the first round.[5]
