The 1914 Pyrenees Cup was the 5th and last tournament of the Pyrenees Cup, one of the first international football club competitions.[1] The competition was held on the road between 1 March and 24 May, and it was won by FC Espanya de Barcelona after beating La Comète et Simiot 3–1 in the final. This was the first time a team other than FC Barcelona won the competition, being finally knocked out by the eventual champions in the semi-finals in an unexpected 2–5 loss.

Participants

The tournament was contested by 7 teams, three from Barcelona, two from Midi-Pyrénées and one each from Côte d'Argent and Sabedell, the latter making their debut in the competition.[2]
