European Clubs in Argentina and Uruguay (1914-1935)

British Clubs in Argentina and Uruguay (1904-1929) (link to separate file)

Explanation

General Remarks

These files contain the matches played by European teams during their trips to Argentina and Uruguay.

Many scorers are not available. The European scorers are written in black and the Argentinean (or Uruguayan) scorers in blue.

The period included begins in 1904, when the first British professional team (Southampton) arrived at the Río de La Plata.

Until 1930 the Argentinean teams were amateur. Professional football was introduced in 1931.

Combinados

"Combinado" denotes something like "All-Star Team". There are "combinados" from countries, cities and leagues.

We list the following more detailed explanations on some of the team names occurring here:

• Británicos: a team formed by British players that played in the Argentinean League during the first years of the 20th Century.
• Argentinos: a team formed by Argentinean players from the Argentinean League during the first years of the 20th Century.
• Liga Argentina: an all-star team of the Argentinean League.
• Liga Uruguaya: an all-star team of the Uruguayan League.
• Universitarios: a team formed by university student players.
• Liga Rosarina: an all-star team of the Rosario League (from Rosario, Santa Fe).
• Combinado Norte: a team formed by players from teams from Northern Buenos Aires.
• Combinado Sur: a team formed by players from teams from Southern Buenos Aires.
• Argentina: a team resembling the Argentina national team, mostly formed by players from Buenos Aires and sometimes with players from Rosario or Santa Fe. Sometimes it is difficult to determine whether these teams were a real national Team or just an all-Star team from the League (the same situation happened with Uruguay).
• Combinado "Provincia": a team formed by players from Greater Buenos Aires and La Plata teams.
• Combinado "Capital": a team formed by players from Buenos Aires City teams.
• Combinado Ligas del Interior: a team formed by players from Regional Leagues.
