1999 Uzbekistan Super Cup (Футбол бўйича 1999–йилги Ўзбекистон Суперкубоги) was the first match in the history of the Uzbekistan Super Cup. According to some sources, the tournament was also referred to as the "Uzbekistan President's Cup" in 1999. It took place on 29 August at the "Fergana" stadium in the city of Fergana (capacity: 16,000 spectators). 6,000 fans attended the match.[1][2]
The participants of the 1999 Uzbekistan Super Cup were the 1998 Uzbek League champions — Tashkent’s Pakhtakor, and the 1998 Uzbekistan Cup winners – Namangan's Navbahor. The match ended 4–2 in favor of the Namangan club, making Navbahor the first-ever winner of the Uzbekistan Super Cup in history.[3][4]
After that, for unknown reasons, the tournament was not held again until 2014.
