It was revealed before the start of the match, that both teams entered the match wearing red jerseys. There was no provision for a reserve kits of another color for all players at that time. First, with the help of the organizers, it was determined the uniform of which local club would be suitable. Club "Inter de Porto Alegre" also played in red jerseys. Then the choice fell on the Cruzeiro-RS club, since it was closest to the stadium. Who to change clothes was decided by lot. The Mexicans guessed the coin correctly. But they nobly allowed the Swiss to play in their red jerseys. And the Mexicans themselves put on the uniform of the Cruzeiro-RS club. The Brazilian shirts were with blue and white vertical stripes.
