In July 1912, Gimnasia y Esgrima de Buenos Aires disaffiliated from Asociación Argentina de Football, founding the Federación Argentina de Football (FAF) presided by Ricardo Aldao. Recently promoted teams Porteño and Estudiantes (LP) joined the new league, among other clubs.

1912 was the inaugural season of the dissident FAF league. This tournament was formed by 3 dissident teams from the Asociación Argentina (AAF): Estudiantes de La Plata, Gimnasia y Esgrima (BA) and Porteño, plus the 4 teams promoted from the second division: Argentino de Quilmes, Atlanta, Independiente and Kimberley (Villa Devoto). The last club added was the recently created Sociedad Sportiva Argentina.^[2]

Championship playoff

Independiente and Porteño finished level on points at the top of the table, necessitating a championship playoff. The game was suspended at 87' after the Independiente players abandoned the pitch in protest at a disallowed goal by referee Carlos Aertz. The championship was then awarded to Porteño.^[1]

Notes

↑ Team from Villa Devoto, Buenos Aires. Not to be confused with Kimberley de Mar del Plata.
1 2 Independiente won the championship after winning its final game 5-0 against a weakened Argentino de Quilmes team. Nevertheless, the club offered to play runner-up Porteño in a playoff to avoid criticism.
↑ Porteño was declared champion after the Independiente players abandoned the field.
