The 1992 Ukrainian Cup Final is a football match that took place at the Republican Stadium on May 31, 1992. The match was the 1st Ukrainian Cup Final and it was contested by FC Chornomorets Odessa and FC Metalist Kharkiv. The 1992 Ukrainian Cup Final was the first to be held in the Ukrainian capital Kiev. Chornomorets won the match 1:0 on the silver goal rule when the Illya Tsymbalar's 107' goal gave the Odessa club the win during the extra time.

The match also had 1 yellow card issued to Kastorny (Metalist).

Six Ukrainian Premier League clubs that competed last year in the Soviet Supreme League started from the second round (1/8) of which included both Chornomorets and Metalist.

The two teams had some difficulties along the way. Chornomorets surprisingly lost its first game in Zhytomyr to Polissya 1:4 (!), but reinstated themselves in the return leg with a colossal 7:1 win. Then had to visit Zaporizhia two rounds in a row before qualifying for this final. Metalist came to the final after defeating Shakhtar in the semi-finals and were considered able to repeat their previous Soviet achievement by earning another national trophy.
