The 1941 Copa Escobar-Gerona, also named Copa de Confraternidad Rioplatense, was the first edition of the competition organised jointly by the Argentine and Uruguayan associations.
San Lorenzo (Argentine Primera División runner-up) faced Peñarol (Uruguayan Primera División runner-up) in a two-legged series. The first match was played at Estadio Centenario in Montevideo, where San Lorenzo won 2–1. As the second leg in Buenos Aires was never held, the tournament was declared unfinished, leaving the title vacant.
