The 1916 Copa de Honor Municipalidad de Buenos Aires was the final that decided the champion of the 11th edition of this National cup of Argentina.[1] In the match, held in Racing Club Stadium on November 12, 1916, Rosario Central won its first Copa de Honor after beating Independiente 1–0.[1][2]

That year was one of the most successful in the history of Rosario Central so the club won four titles, the Copa Nicasio Vila (first division of Rosarian Football League), the 1915 edition of Copa Ibarguren, Copa de Competencia Jockey Club, and the Copa de Honor.[3]
