The1990–91Argentine Primera División was the 100th season of top-flight professionalfootball in Argentina. This season saw the introduction of theApertura and Clausura system in Argentina.^[1] The season began on 20 August 1990 and ended on 30 June 1991.^[2]

Newell's Old Boys won the 1990 Apertura andBoca Juniors won the 1991 Clausura. Unlike following seasons, Apertura and Clausura titles were not officially recognised by the AFA so both teams had to play a two-legged final to crown a champion for the entire season. After a 1–1 tie on aggregate, Newell's Old Boys won the championship 3–1 by penalty shoot-out.^[3]^[4]

San Lorenzo won the Liguilla pre-Libertadores after beatingBoca Juniors, therefore qualifying to the1992 edition.

Competition format

[edit]

The tournament for the 1990–91 season was composed of 20 teams. Each team played each other teams in a singleround-robin tournament. The season was divided in two separate championships, calledApertura (Opening) andClausura (Closing). The winning teams from each tournament played a two-legged final for the season championship and to earn one of the two berths allocated to Argentine clubs in the1992 Copa Libertadores. The remaining berth was allocated via a direct elimination tournament between the top four (or five, depending on the outcome of the season final) teams from both Clausura and Apertura. Relegation occurred at the end of the Clausura stage, with the two teams with the worst three-year point average (Primera División competition only) being relegated toPrimera B Nacional competition.

Apertura Tournament

[edit]

The "Apertura" Tournament began on 20 August 1990 and finished on 22 December 1990.Newell's Old Boys won the tournament and would play the championship final against the winner from theClausura Tournament. The match played betweenBoca Juniors andSan Lorenzo was suspended following incidents in the stands during halftime that resulted in the death of a supporter. No points were awarded to both teams.
