The Copa Centenario Revolución de Mayo was an international football tournament, held in Argentina from 29 May to 12 June 1910,[1] and organized by the Argentine Football Association.[2] It was the first international tournament in South America where more than two football nations participated.[3] The "Copa Centenario" is considered a predecessor to the South American Championship, later renamed "Copa América".[4]
Because of having featured three of the subsequent four founding members of CONMEBOL, the Copa Centenario Revolución de Mayo was sometimes called "the first Copa América". However, CONMEBOL recognizes the 1916 South American Championship as the first edition of the competition.[6]
