Alberto Suppici , full name Alberto Horacio Suppici Sedes , (born November 20, 1898 in Colonia del Sacramento , Uruguay , † June 21, 1981 in Montevideo ) was a Uruguayan football player and coach .

Player career

The 1.67 meter tall Suppici was in the squad of the Uruguayan first division club Nacional Montevideo from 1915 to 1923 . He played on the position of the so-called left half or outside runner . During his time with the team, the Bolsos won the Uruguayan championship title seven times in 1915, 1916, 1917, 1919, 1920, 1922 and 1923. In addition, he won the Copa Competencia Chevallier Boutell in 1915 and the Copa Aldao the following year .

Coaching career

The il Profesor called Suppici was after his playing career coach of the Uruguayan national football team . He supervised Uruguay's selection at the Campeonato Sudamericano in 1929 and led them to third place. He celebrated the greatest success of his entire sporting career at the football world championship in 1930 , when he won the first world championship tournament with the Celeste . At the age of 31 years and 240 days, he is still the youngest coach of a world championship team. It should be noted, however, that the trained sports teacher Suppici, as was common at the time, was probably mainly responsible for the fitness of the players and the discipline in the team. The strategic or tactical did not necessarily belong to the tasks of the coach at the time, but was taken over by the leading player (s). At the South American Championships in 1937 and 1939, and thus at two other continental tournaments, he also held the national coaching position. In 1939 he finished second with the team.

In 1945 he coached Club Atlético Peñarol and was Uruguayan champion for the eighth time, now for the first time as a coach.
