Richmond Kickers qualified for interzonal playoff Caribbean Zone.

Olimpia and Municipal of Guatemala qualified for the Cuadrangular Final; the tournament was abandoned and both teams obtained byes to  the second round of the Recopa 1997. Interzonal Playoff. Matches not played; neither club progressed to the Recopa 1997. Instead Necaxa were added to the Recopa 1997. tournament, supposedly because of being the only team left at the time of the abandonment of the 1996 edition (notwithstanding their participation in the Champions' Cup) and obtained a bye to the final round of the Recopa 1997 (which was not finished either). Final Round. Tournament was abandoned.
