Career

Player career

Corazzo was Diego Forlán's grandfather and Pablo Forlán's father-in-law . The used in the central midfield, "Nino" or "Gamuza" called Uruguayan began his active career in 1920 with Democracia . For this club he played until 1923. In 1924 he was in the ranks of the Wanderers . From 1925 to 1931 he was a member of the team of the Montevidean club Sud América . He then emigrated to Argentina and joined the Argentinian club Racing Club de Avellaneda . There he could not convince and moved to Independiente . With the Argentines he narrowly missed winning the title in 1932 and 1934 as runner-up. In 1935 he was again runner- up with the team under coach Máximo Garay . He played in 32 of the 34 games that season and was next to Luis Fazio the player with the most appearances that season. His fourth runner-up with this team followed in 1937.

Coaching career

Corazzo coached the Danubio FC team from 1954 to 1955, again from 1957 to 1958 and a third time in 1969 . On March 9, 1955, he made his debut in the 3-1 victory over Paraguay as part of the Campeonato Sudamericano 1955 as a coach of the Uruguayan national soccer team . At the latest at the South American Championship in January 1956, however, he had already been replaced by Hugo Bagnulo in this role. In a friendly against Paraguay on May 1, 1959, at the second tournament of the South American Championship that year, he was also responsible for the Uruguayan bench, as well as at the Copa del Atlántico in August 1960, in the friendly defeat against the USSR on April 27 1962, at the South American Championships in 1967 and at the Copa Rio Branco in June 1968. At the two South American Championships in 1959 and 1967 he was able to celebrate winning the respective titles. This makes him the most successful coach after Guillermo Stábile in terms of title wins in this competition .

According to FIFA , he also looked after the "Celeste" at the 1962 World Cup . The sources are contradictory here, however, as it is sometimes reported that a coaching trio consisting of Roberto Scarone , Hugo Bagnulo and Juan López led the Uruguayan team at this World Cup .

Sud América is given as another coaching station in his career .
