Draw The champions and runners-up of each football association were drawn into the same group along with another football association's participating teams. Three clubs from Chile competed as Colo-Colo was champion of the 1991 Copa Libertadores.
Group 1 Group 2 Group 3 Group 4 Group 5
Group stage Group 1 Colo-Colo, as the previous year champions, should join the competition only in the Round of 16, but they requested to start the competition in the group stage, due to financial reasons, thus five clubs participated in this group.
Group 2
Group 3
As Marítimo and Universidad de Los Andes finished with the same number of points, a playoff to define the third-placed team was played. Marítimo beat Universidad de Los Andes and qualified to the Round of 16.There's an inconsistency in this data: while the CSF informs the match finished tied 2:2 (http://www.conmebol.com/competiciones_evento_partidos_previo.jsp?evento=1081&ano=1992&slangab=S), RSSSF affirms Marítimo won 1:0 over ULA (http://www.rsssf.com/sacups/copa92.html).
Tiebreaker Marítimo qualify due to better goal difference in group.
