The Copa de Honor Cusenier was an international football club competition which was played 13 times between representatives of the Argentina and Uruguay associations between 1905 and 1920.
History The trophy was donated by "E. Cusenier Fils Auné & Cie.", a French liqueur company that had installed a factory in Buenos Aires in the 1890s,"Mozo, una mariposa!" by Ángel Prignano, 4 Oct 2010 giving its name to the competition. Initially, the cup was set to be played between representatives of AFA, AUF and Liga Rosarina.
