On December 25, 1991 the President of the Soviet Union Mikhail Gorbachev announced that he resigns as president. On December 26, the Soviet of the Republics, the upper chamber of the Union's Supreme Soviet, voted the Soviet Union out of existence[1][2] (the lower chamber, the Council of the Union, had been unable to work since December 12, when the recall of the Russian deputies left it without a quorum).

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 in the 1992–93 European Cup Winners' Cup.
