Overview
It was the first Copa Aldao final contested by Boca Juniors as champion of Primera División, while Nacional played its third final having been winner of the 2nd. edition played in 1916. 1919 was one of the most successful seasons in the history of Boca Juniors so the club won the Copa de Competencia Jockey Club, Copa Ibarguren, and international Tie Cup (won to Nacional).
