Copa Roca
The Roca Cup ( es, Copa Roca) was a football competition contested between Argentina and Brazil national teams from 1914 to 1976 on irregular basis. The Copa Roca was the first trophy, official or unofficial, ever won by a Brazilian national team. History The competition was created by former President of Argentina, General Julio Argentino Roca, in 1913.

But in 1915 the FAF merged with ...
