Life

Guillermo Stábile at CA Huracán (1928)

Guillermo Stábile began playing football at Sportivo Metán , but went to the first division club CA Huracán in 1920 . There he made his debut at the age of 17 and became Argentine champions with the team in 1925 and 1928.

Shortly before the 1930 World Cup, Stábile was nominated for the national team. Although he was not part of the team, he scored eight goals in four games, making him the first top scorer at a World Cup. Despite his team's defeat in the final against Uruguay, he became a folk hero. After the World Cup, he did not play any other international matches for Argentina.

After the World Cup, Stábile moved to Italy , where he also acted as assistant coach to Luigi Burlando at CFC Genoa in the 1931/32 season . In those years he scored 15 goals in 41 games for Genoa. After relegation in 1934, he moved to SSC Napoli for a year , where he scored three times in 20 games, and then returned for one season to the re-promoted CFC Genoa, where he only came into play once and also scored one goal . Between 1936 and 1939, Stábile ended his playing career with the French first division club Red Star Olympique in Paris . From 1937 he was also in charge of training as a player- coach. During this time he also ran for the French national football team .

In August 1939, Stábile was the national coach of the Argentine national football team . From 1941 to 1958 he and his team won 83 times in 125 games. He led Argentina to six wins at the Copa America in 1941, 1945, 1946, 1947, 1955 and 1957 . However, after Argentina was eliminated from the group bottom in the preliminary round after a 3-1 defeat against Germany and a 6-1 defeat against Czechoslovakia at the soccer World Cup in Sweden in 1958 , with only one win against Northern Ireland, his activity ended for the time being . 1960 Stábile returned again for ten games and led Argentina to the Pan American Football Championship .

Parallel to his work for the national team, Stábile also trained club teams. From 1939 to 1941 as well as 1943 and 1949 he was in charge of his parent club CA Huracán . In 1939 and 1940 he was also included in the lists of CA San Lorenzo de Almagro .

With the Racing Club , a club in a suburb of Buenos Aires , which he coached from 1946 to 1953, Stábile won three championships between 1949 and 1951. This championship hat trick , however, was favored by the fact that the competitors, such as the then mighty CA River Plate, suffered as a result of the players' strike at the time, which also led to the emigration of numerous stars abroad. Racing had an advantage here in that the club anticipated almost all the results of the strike and therefore suffered the least from the consequences in this phase and was therefore relatively best positioned.

From 1960 until his death at the age of 60 in 1966, Stábile headed the national coaching school.
