The 1957 Copa Aldao was the final match to decide the winner of the Copa Aldao, the 18th edition of the international competition organised by the Argentine and Uruguayan Associations together.[http://revistauncanio.com.ar/picado/se-mira-y-no-se-toca/ Se mira y no se toca] by Damián Didonato on Un Caño The final (held ten years after than its previous edition) was contested by Uruguayan club Nacional and Argentine side River Plate.[https://www.rsssf.org/sacups/aldao.html Copa Aldao overview] by Osvaldo Gorgazzi on the RSSSF[https://argentina.as.com/argentina/2020/12/10/futbol/1607622666_615698.html El historial entre River y Nacional] by Nicolás Mirelman on As, 10 Dec 2020
In the first match, played at Estadio Centenario in Montevideo, River Plate won 2–1 but the second leg, to be held in Buenos Aires, was never played. As the associations did not decide about the issue, no title was awarded."Copas Interligas 1947" by José Carluccio, 14 July 2009[https://www.clarin.com/futbol/trece_decadas-1916-1927-1937-1959-copas_oficiales-aldao-barnade_0_HyjYvVYD7x.html Las copas de River y el valor de la letra oficial] by Oscar Barnade on Clarín, 18 Aug 2015
