Tie Cup

The Tie Cup Competition (also known as Copa de Competencia Chevallier Boutell) was an international football tournament played between representatives of the Argentina and Uruguay Associations.

[1] The competition was inspired by English FA Cup,[2] with its trophy donated by Francis Hepburn Chevallier-Boutell, president of the Argentine Football Association (AFA), in 1900.

Initially, the competition included a total of four teams, with two from AFA, one from AUF and one from Liga Rosarina.

That format remained until 1907, when the cup was contested between one representative each from Argentina and Uruguay.
