[3] The Federación Cántabra de Fútbol was officially established on 23 October 1922, and three weeks later, on 12 November 1922, the Cantabrian Regional Championship was launched with 28 clubs and 670 players.

[9] The second leg was held at Aragon's home, the Campo de la Torre de Bruil in Zaragoza, where they were beaten 0-2, and so, both teams agreed on a new match to define the winner of their meeting, which took place in the following day, 21 April, also at Zaragoza, and the third clash generated so much importance that they were forced to hire a Catalan referee, but despite that, the game was full of controversy, with two penalties for each side leveling the game at 1-1, but since a draw was not an option, both captains decided to prolong the match with an additional 30 minutes, in which the Aragonese team found the winner.

[10] In the following year, 1925, they faced Asturias in another two-legged affair, in Santander and El Molinón in Gijón, and this time Cantabria won after a 3-3 draw at home and a 1-0 win away, courtesy of an own goal from a former Cantabric international Manuel Meana.

Francisco Gento, a former Real Madrid player and the footballer who has won the most European Cup titles, was chosen as the coach, and he was the one who formed the Cantabria XI that beat Latvia; and the 37-year-old Fernando Tocornal was the captain of the Cantabrians.

And at the third attempt, in 2003, against Macedonia, the Federation was forced to suspend the match because of the low ticket sales, despite the fact that footballers such as Munitis and Amavisca had confirmed their attendance.
