Cungu started his second season in charge of Laçi in July, where the team was going to face Inter Baku for the 2015–16 UEFA Europa League first qualifying round.[3] In the first leg at home, despite making a good overall appearance in the match, Laçi didn't earn more than a 1–1 draw, leaving everything open for the returning leg.[4] In the returning leg, Cungu's side was not able to score as the final result was 0–0, meaning that Laçi are out due to away goal rule.[5] On 12 August, in team's first match in domestic season, Cungu won his second silverware with the club, the Albanian Supercup, where Laçi beat Skënderbeu Korçë on penalty shootouts after a 2–2 draw in regular time.[6]
