1955 Copa Campeonato Juan Domingo Perón

[1] Lanús[4] won the tournament (the first senior title of their history)[1] after defeating Estudiantes (LP) in the final match.

[5][6][7] The competition was contested by seven clubs, mostly of them located within the Buenos Aires Province region (with the exception of Chacarita Juniors) that were competing in Primera División in 1955.

It was played under a single-elimination format, and like Copa Adrián C. Escobar, when a match ended in a tie after the overtime, the team with most corner kicks conceded was declared winner.

Nevertheless and due to the 1955 coup d'etat that ended the second presidential term of Juan Perón, Lanús was not awarded the cup because the military government had appointed an interventor at the association.

Estudiantes (LP) qualified to play the final v the winner of the winning teams round, Lanús
