Enrique Rivers

Enrique Rivers Gutiérrez (born 4 January 1961 in Limón) became one of the most famous Costa Rican football players during the 1980s. He played most of his career with Deportivo Saprissa, as well as for CSD Comunicaciones in Guatemala. He is mostly remembered for scoring the goal against Italy's national team during the 1984 Olympic Games held in Los Angeles. At that period of time, the Italians were the World Cup champions, and their defeat against Costa Rica was a historic event in the football world.

After retiring from professional football, Rivers was assistant coach for Alexandre Guimarães in Saprissa, where they won the 1998 and 1999 local championships. He was head coach of Deportivo Saprissa for a short period of time as well, but decided to focus on the coordinating tasks for Saprissa's minor league system, where he has been able to discover and recruit young kids and launch them into successful football careers.
