The 1936 Argentine Primera División was the 45° season of top-flight football in Argentina. Two regular championships were disputed that year, "Copa de Honor" (won by San Lorenzo de Almagro) and "Copa Campeonato" (won by River Plate).
At the end of the season, both champions, River and San Lorenzo, played a single match for the "Copa de Oro" trophy. River Plate won the match, that would be recognised as an additional league title.
Trophy disputed by both champions of the year, San Lorenzo and River Plate. In June 2013 (77 years after the match was played) the AFA recognized it as a new championship for River Plate, adding it to club's Primera División honours. The association also recognized the "Copa de Honor" as a championship for San Lorenzo, adding it to clubs' Primera División titles.
Both teams had been previously recognized as champions (two titles for River and one for San Lorenzo) on 1936 AFA's Annual Report and Balance, but the association officialized their honors long after.
