Torino would eventually lose tournament, due in part to an unofficial match of the national team, organised for propaganda purposes, held in Trieste two days before the game against "La Spezia". Despite the trip made difficult by the operations of war, the president Novo, underestimating their opponents, rejects the proposal of the Federation to postpone the match against Spezia who, fresher, leave Milan. The "Fire Brigade", which came from the 1-1 draw against Venice, in the decisive match prevail 2-1, thus making unnecessary the subsequent victory of the "Granata" at Venezia 5-2.
