San Lorenzo (Argentine Primera División runner-up) faced Peñarol (Uruguayan Primera División runner-up) in a two-legged series. The first match was played at Estadio Centenario in Montevideo, where San Lorenzo won 2–1. As the second leg in Buenos Aires was never held, the tournament was declared unfinished, leaving the title vacant.[2][1]
