Felipe Castañeda , also known by the nickname La Marrana ( Spanish roughly for The Battle Pig ), is a former Mexican soccer coach and player in the position of goalkeeper .

Life

As a player

With the CD Marte, “La Marrana” Castañeda won the last official soccer championship held in Mexico on an amateur basis in the 1942/43 season, in which Castañeda was also considered the best goalkeeper in Mexico.

Presumably in 1949 he switched to CD Veracruz , with which he won the championship of the professional league introduced in 1943/44 in the 1949/50 season. He played with the Tiburones Rojos until at least 1951.

As a trainer

In 1952 he was hired as the coach of CD Irapuato , which he led in the 1953/54 season to win the second division championship and thus to promotion to the Primera División . Like a large part of the team, Castañeda fell victim to the personnel carousel that the Freseros management organized to make the team “suitable for the first division”. "La Marrana" has been replaced by Alfredo Costa, a former Club León player .

Later Castañeda worked as a trainer at CD Zamora (1965/66), CF Torreón (1966/67), San Luis FC (1968) as well as Querétaro FC , CF Laguna and CF Pachuca .

  2. The known sources ascribe Castañeda only two club memberships, so it can be assumed that he switched directly from Marte to Veracruz. With the Tiburones Rojos he appeared according to the Libro de Oro del Fútbol Mexicano for the first time in 1949 and was still in use in January 1951 in a friendly against the Boca Juniors .
