1992–93 UEFA Cup

22nd season of Europe's secondary club football tournament organised by UEFA From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Remove ads

The 1992–93 UEFA Cup was the 22nd season of Europe's then-tertiary club football tournament organised by UEFA. The final was played over two legs at Westfalenstadion, Dortmund, Germany, and at Stadio Delle Alpi, Turin, Italy. The competition was won by Italian club Juventus, who beat Borussia Dortmund of Germany by an aggregate result of 6–1, to claim their third UEFA Cup title.

Quick facts Tournament details, Dates ...

Juventus became the first club to win the UEFA Cup three times, and registered a record score for a two-legged UEFA Cup final. Due to the breakup of Yugoslavia and the international sanctions for the ongoing Yugoslav Wars, UEFA banned all Yugoslavian teams from competing. Slovenia, a former Yugoslav republic, was represented for the first time in the UEFA Cup, although Olimpija Ljubljana competed in its unofficial predecessor Inter-Cities Fairs' Cup in the late 1960s.

Association team allocation

Summarize
Perspective

A total of 64 teams from 31 UEFA member associations participated in the 1992–93 UEFA Cup, all entering from the first round over six knock-out rounds. The association ranking based on the UEFA country coefficients was originally used to determine the number of participating teams for each association:

  • Associations 1–3 each have four teams qualify.
  • Associations 4–8 each have three teams qualify.
  • Associations 9–21 each have two teams qualify.
  • Associations 22–32 each have one team qualify.

The various political reorganizations and disputes in Europe resulted in various changes in the team allocation. Yugoslavia (association 10 in the ranking) and Albania were banned from entering the competition, and their three berths went to associations 9, 11 and 12 as a third berth. East Germany had ceased to exist as a country after the German reunification, and its results were erased from the UEFA ranking. As the place allocation was one team short, the newly formed Slovenia was allowed to enter the competition without a ranking coefficient.

Association ranking

For the 1992–93 UEFA Cup, the associations are allocated places according to their 1991 UEFA country coefficients, which takes into account their performance in European competitions from 1986–87 to 1990–91. Therefore, it did not include any of the new football federations that had join UEFA in the prior months. Having returned to European competitions in 1990 after a five-year ban, England's score was limited to the last of the five seasons accounted for in the ranking, and only two English clubs competed in the UEFA Cup.

More information Rank, Association ...
  • ^
    Wales: There was no national league in Wales before 1992 and the only competition organised by the Football Association of Wales was the Welsh Cup, so Wales had just a single participant in European competitions, the winner (or best-placed Welsh team as several English teams also competed) of the Welsh Cup, which competed in the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup. Its virtual ranking is only an original research, because the UEFA country ranking was only used to allocate the UEFA Cup spots at time, so Wales was not included.
  • ^
    East Germany: The slots previously allocated to East Germany did not apply due to the reunification of Germany, and the end of the NOFV-Oberliga the previous year. It was the first time a country disappeared since the introduction of the UEFA ranking, requiring an unprecedented decision. As two spots vacated, UEFA no more considered East Germany. Consequently, Turkey moved to the additional spot zone, and another place became available at the bottom of the list for the title holders. As the latter was not needed, it was given to a new country, Slovenia.
  • ^
    Soviet Union, Russia & Ukraine: The Soviet Union was formally dissolved shortly after the end of the 1991 Soviet Top League. Following an agreement between Russia, Ukraine and UEFA, Ukraine relinquished all Soviet football heritage to Russia, that in turn immediately accepted a separate Ukrainian representation in the UEFA Champions League and the Cup Winners' Cup through the 1992 Vyshcha Liha and the 1992 Ukrainian Cup. On the other hand, the UEFA Cup slots were still awarded through the Soviet League results, although teams would compete for their own associations. After the results of the Ukrainian competitions, two Russian sides and one Ukrainian side took the Soviet spots.
  • ^
    Albania: All Albanian clubs were excluded from European competitions for the 1992–93 season, after the political situation in Albania collapsed and the national team could not complete the UEFA Euro 1992 qualifying. Their berth in the UEFA Cup was allocated as a third berth to association 9, Scotland. In Albania, Partizani would have qualified for the UEFA Cup.
  • ^
    Yugoslavia: One week after the 1991-92 Yugoslav First League was finished, Yugoslavia was disqualified from European club competitions, after a United Nations ban due to the breakup of the country and the ensuing warfare there. Their two slots in the UEFA Cup were allocated as a third berth for associations 11-12, namely Romania and Austria. In Yugoslavia, Vojvodina and OFK Beograd would have qualified by league position.

    Notes

    1. ^
      Russia/Ukraine: As per the original agreement between Russia and Ukraine after the dissolution of the Soviet Union, teams qualified for the UEFA Cup through the 1991 Soviet Top League would compete for their own federations, with two Ukrainian sides and one Russian side, while Ukraine was allowed to obtain a place of their own for the UEFA Champions League and the European Cup Winners' Cup. Chornomorets, one of the Ukrainian sides that had qualified for the UEFA Cup, won the 1992 Ukrainian Cup and entered the European Cup Winners' Cup, relinquishing the spot to the next best non-qualified team. This was Dynamo Moscow, giving Russia a second team along a single Ukrainian side.
    2. ^
      Austria: FC Swarovski Tirol qualified for the UEFA Cup, but the team was dissolved and its licence in the Austrian Football Bundesliga was taken by Wacker Innsbruck. While considered a new team, Wacker Innsbruck retained the UEFA Cup placing, effectively reversing the events of 1986.
