Carlos Humberto Caszely Garrido (born July 5, 1950 in Santiago de Chile ) is a Chilean football coach and former football player .

Player career

Club career

The only 1.67 m tall, beefy center forward Carlos Caszely played from 1967 for the Chilean capital club Colo Colo , with which he became Chilean football champion in 1970 and 1972 . In 1973 Caszely was the top scorer of the Copa Libertadores .

He went to Spain and played there from 1973-74 for Levante UD , then for Espanyol Barcelona . In July 1978 he returned to Colo Colo. In 1979, 1980 and 1981 he was the top scorer of the Chilean league, 1979, 1981 and 1983 Chilean champions, and 1981, 1982 and 1985 Chilean cup winners . On October 12, 1985, he put an end to his time at Colo Colo.

In May 1985 he moved to New York, where he took part in the last two games in the club's history in the final phase of the then glamor club New York Cosmos . In June he scored a goal in a 2-0 win over Portuguese runners-up Sporting Lisbon .

In 1986 he appeared again in eight games for the Ecuadorian top club Barcelona SC from Guayaquil and scored four goals.

National team

In 1969 Caszely was appointed to the Chilean national team for the first time . Among other things, he ran on November 27, 1973 in the national stadium of Santiago de Chile for the decisive relegation game, to which the Soviet team, however, had not started in protest. After the Chileans scored the first goal, the game was abandoned and later scored 2-0 for Chile.

At the 1974 World Cup, Chile played their first game against Germany . Germany struggled, but led through a long-range shot by Paul Breitner . In the second half Caszely was sent off by Turkish referee Doğan Babacan after a revenge foul on Berti Vogts . It was the first red card in the history of the World Cup . FIFA didn't introduce the yellow and red cards until the 1970 World Cup . Chile lost the game with 0: 1 and Caszely was suspended for the game against the GDR (1: 1). In the last game of the first final round against Australia (0-0) he was used over the entire distance. Chile then left.

At the Soccer World Cup in Spain in 1982 he played again in a group with Germany . This time Chile lost 4-1 and had to go home again after the preliminary round after further defeats against Austria and Algeria. Caszely had a particularly unfortunate scene when he scored a penalty against Austria. In total, Caszely was used in 49 international matches by 1985, in which he scored the then record number of 29 goals, which was only exceeded in 1998 by Marcelo Salas .

Miscellaneous

Caszely was a supporter of the left-wing government of Salvador Allende in the early 1970s . After the military coup by the bloodthirsty General Augusto Pinochet , family members were at times exposed to persecution. He later became involved with President Michelle Bachelet . In 2015 he was a short-term sports attaché at the embassy in Madrid.

In the early 1980s he took a brief excursion into music. Later he also worked in films.

documentation

Éric Cantona was the presenter of a film documentary that was broadcast on Arte in 2012 under the name Rebellen am Ball , and which, among other things, highlighted the fate of Caszely and his criticism of the regime during the dictatorship.
