Neftchi's debut in the European Cups coincided with this tournament.

This was the first and last appearance of the flagship in the Cup Winners' Cup. In the 1995/1996 season, our team met with the Cypriot club APOEL. Head coach Vagif Sadigov's team lost on August 10, 1995 - 0:3.

Two weeks later, no goals were scored in the return match at the Mehdi Huseynzadeh Sumgayit City Stadium, and Neftchi stopped the fight.
