  1. ^ The 1995 edition was disputed by the 1994 champions of the two "minor" South American competitions: Cruzeiro (winner of the 1994 Supercopa Masters, played in 1995) and São Paulo FC (winner of the 1994 Copa CONMEBOL). The champions of the two "major" competitions, namely Argentine clubs Vélez Sársfield (winner of the 1994 Copa Libertadores) and Club Atlético Independiente (winner of the 1994 Supercopa Sudamericana), decided not to participate in the 1995 edition of the Copa de Oro, and instead disputed the more traditional Recopa Sudamericana in a single match carried out in Tokyo, Japan.
