[2] Of the Catalan clubs registered at the tournament, RCD Espanyol, FC Espanya and Casual SC were loyal to the original institutions (FECF), questioning whether teams from different federations (such as Barça from UECF) could participate in the same international competition, and eventually, FC Espanya did not accept the entry of FC Barcelona and forfeited the match against RCD Espanyol, who together with Casual SC decided to participate in spite of Barcelona's entry.
Interestingly, the Catalan Football Federation penalized Casual SC for playing against FC Barcelona, but not RCD Espanyol.
[2] FC Barcelona won the tournament after thrashing Casual SC 7–0 in the quarter-finals with a hat-trick from Alexander Steel,[3] and then La Comète et Simiot 7–2 in the final with goals from José Berdié (2), Paulino Alcántara (2) and Alfredo Massana.
[4] However, their triumph was wrapped up in controversy as they actually lost the semi-finals 1–3 to RCD Espanyol, courtesy of a brace from Antonio Morales, a former Barça player; but the Blaugrana managed to have the result being annulled through protests about the improper use of British players.
[5] Barcelona played the second half with 10 players due to a tackle by S. Massana on Steel that prevented him from continuing to play, and Espanyol took full advantage of it to win 3–1, thus becoming the first team in the history of the competition to beat Barcelona, but Barça protested against the fact that Espanyol had fielded three British players brought by them from the United Kingdom only to play the match, and their protest was upheld resulting in Espanyol being disqualified and FC Barcelona reaching the final yet again.
