Campo de L’Amicale Francaise, Ciudad de México.
L’Amicale Francaise–México	awarded match to L’Amicale Francaise
 
NB: According to “The Mexican Herald” on Jan. 19, 1914, Club México did not show up
    and the match was awarded to L’Amicale Française; however in other note published
    on Jan. 12 in the same paper, it was announced that the match would be in the
    ground of french team; however, in the final table presented by the paper on
    Jan. 22 the numbers consigned there can only be coincident if the result is taken
    as inverse.
Waiting for more information, we have chosen to ignore this particular data from the
  final table presented by “The Mexican Herald”, specially since it would not make
  sense to have awarded the match to Club México if the match would be played in the 
  ground of L’Amicale Française.
