Hakoah All-Stars in South America, 1930

There was a Jewish Sports club based in New York as early as 1921 (Maccabean Athletic Club).

In July 1926 The Hakoah Athletic Club formed, joining the  International Soccer League of New York, the Empire State League and the German-American League.
The club was modeled on Hakoah Wien. 
Hakoah Wien had enjoyed a successful visit to the USA in May 1926, and a number of the players were attracted to life there. 
These players, many of whom had represented Austria, Hungary and Czechoslovakia, were central to the development of  2 clubs, New York Hakoah  and Brooklyn Hakoah. Both clubs enjoyed success and merged in 1930 to form Hakoah All-Stars.

Touring was a lucrative business, and in 1930 Hakoah had 3 offers to consider- Australia, Europe and South America.
They settled for South America. 
I have found some records of the matches in Brazil which suggest that the squad was composed as follows: 

Hakoah  regulars:	International caps
Lajos Fischer	Hungary (9)
Laszlo Sternberg	Hungary (19)
Pepi Schneider	Austria (11)
Rudolph Nickolsburger (aka Nikolsburger Rezső , aka Rudy Nichols)	Hungary (2)
Leopold Drucker	Austria (1)
Pavel Mahrer	Czechoslovakia (6)
Bela Guttmann	Hungary (4)
Leo Grünfeld
German born, formerly of Stuttgart Kickers
Moritz Häusler	Austria(7)
Erno Schwarz	Hungary (2)
Sándor Nemes (aka Alexander Neufeld)	Hungary (3) Austria (2)
Siegfried Wortmann	Austria (1)
Max Grünwald	Austria (1)
Guests:
Murren Carlsson  (New York Giants)	Sweden (20)
Walter Dick  (Providence Gold Bugs)	USA (1)
Red McMillan (New Bedford Whalers)
A Scot who had played for Dunfermline Athletic before emigrating.
Vickers
I suspect this to be an Englishman, James Vickers, who played for Fall River Marksmen.

19.06.30	Seleção Paulista	3	1	Hakoah All Stars	Brazil
	São Paulo select including Friedenreich.
22.06.30	Seleção Da AMEA	2	0	Hakoah All Stars	Brazil
	Associação Metropolitana de Esportes Athleticos was the Rio League. This was a selection of players who had not made the World Cup squad.
28.06.30	Vasco Da Gama	0	1	Hakoah All Stars	Brazil
29.06.30	Seleção Carioca Da Zona Norte	0	0	Hakoah All Stars	Brazil
	Northern Rio select.
05.07.30	Combined Palestra Itália/São Paulo	2	3	Hakoah All Stars	Brazil
06.07.30	Corinthians	5	1	Hakoah All Stars	Brazil
12.07.30 (?)	Santos	2	2	Hakoah All Stars	Brazil
	One Brazilian source I read has this match taking place after the games in Argentina and Uruguay, as a stop-off on the return voyage to New York, which would make this date incorrect. The Brazilian source dates the game as 17.08.30, in which case the Peñarol date below is wrong.
13.07.30	Argentina Select	3	1	Hakoah All Stars	Argentina
	Argentine historian Héctor Darío Pelayes dates this game at 30.07.30
14.07.30	Rosario Central	1	1	Hakoah All Stars	Argentina
20.07.30	Newell’s Old Boys	1	1	Hakoah All Stars	Argentina
21.07.30	Rosario Combined	1	1	Hakoah All Stars	Argentina
27.07.30	Belgrano	1	1	Hakoah All Stars	Argentina
28.07.30	La Plata	3	1	Hakoah All Stars	Argentina
	Not to be confused with River Plate
10.08.30	Independiente	0	0	Hakoah All Stars	Argentina
20.08.30	Peñarol	0	0	Hakoah All Stars	Uruguay

Not a great success then, an abundance of draws.

Guttmann would return to Uruguay , Brazil and Argentina after the War as a manager, most notably with Peñarol.

Sensational Nottingham Forest 1905

Sensational  might not be the word for Nottingham Forest in the 1904-05 season in English football. They finished the season 16th out of 18 (p 34 w 9 d 7 l 18 f 40 a 61) in the league and were eliminated in the second round of the FA Cup .

However, their appearance in South America certainly was a sensation. English and Scottish football were still perceived as being on a different planet from the football played elsewhere. The Argentine FA invited Nottingham Forest to tour with an offer of £200.  The voyage, from Southampton, took three weeks.

The touring party consisted of H S Radford (vice president), Harry Hallam (secretary), and players Bob Norris, Harry Linacre, C Clifford, Charles Craig, William Shearman, Sam Timmins, Alf Spouncer, Fred Lessons, Walter Dudley, Thomas Davies, Thomas Niblo, George Henderson and Albert Holmes.

The tour was a success commercially, and Forest enjoyed asserting the superiority of the English game, winning all eight  matches, scoring 57 goals and  conceding 3.

The poster bills the match on June 11th as being against Uruguay, whilst contemporary reports list the opponents as Peñarol  (something of a colloquialism, as at the time the team in black and yellow kit based on the chevrons of Stephenson's Rocket were still officially known as CURCC).

CURCC

11.6.05  Peñarol 6-1 (Montevideo)
16.6.05  Rosario Central-Rosario A.C. 5-0 (Rosario)*

18.6.05  Belgrano 7-0 (this and all subsequent games were played in Buenos Aires).
22.6.05  Británicos 13-1
?            Rosario Central-Rosario A.C. 6-0
?            Alumni 6-0 **
29.6.05  Argentinos 5-0***
2.7.05    Liga Argentina 9-1

The tour concluded with a game between teams combining Argentine and Forest players. 

*Forest donated their share of the gate money to the victims of a local flood

** It was this match that inspired Independiente to adopt the Forest colours.

*** The line up featured Zenon Diaz, the first indigenous player to represent Argentina.

Forest secretary Harry Hallam described the quality of opposition as almost equal to the English Second Division and predicted a bright future for South American football.
