György Marik (born April 4, 1924 in Budapest  , † December 20, 1988 in Mexico ), known in Mexico as Jorge Marik, was a Hungarian football player and coach .

Life

György Marik played in the second half of the 1940s for Vasas Budapest and was twice (1945/46 and 1947/48) runner-up in the Hungarian league with this club . His only two international appearances for the Hungarian national team in 1947 and 1948 fall during this period .

Marik came to Mexico via the Colombian club Independiente Santa Fe and won the Mexican championship with Club León in the 1955/56 season .

Immediately after winning the championship or in the following season, Marik ended his active career and worked as a coach for the next 25 years.

In 1962 he signed a contract with the ambitious second division club Cruz Azul , with whom he won the championship and thus promotion to the Primera División in the 1963/64 season . He stayed with this club until the 1965/66 season and returned briefly in 1976 before he took over the UNAM Pumas in the 1976/77 season and immediately led to their first championship title. Immediately after this triumph he took over the coaching position at Deportivo Toluca , which he exercised up to and including the 1981/82 season for five years.

  3. In "Maquinacementera" the date of birth is April 4th 1930 and the place of birth is Budapest. This information is adopted with the exception of the year of birth. The year of birth 1924 adopted here comes from the article dedicated to him in the Hungarian Wikipedia (button left) and seems more in line with his time at Vasas Budapest (Hungarian runner-up in the 1945/46 season) and the fact that he was a Hungarian national player in 1947. (Incidentally, it would not be the only case in which a person abroad pretended to be younger than he actually is, provided that the information was actually originally from Marik himself, which is, however, questionable.)
