Ladislao Mazurkiewicz Iglesias (born February 14, 1945 in Piriápolis , † January 2, 2013 in Montevideo ) was a Uruguayan football player and coach .

Player career

society

Mazurkiewicz (nicknamed "Chiquito") was rather small for a goalkeeper who was 1.79 m tall and was the son of immigrants - a Polish father from Warsaw and a Spanish mother from A Coruña . However, he never spoke Polish in his life and never visited his father's country of birth. Mazurkiewicz belonged to the first division racings from 1961 . From 1965 he played for Peñarol under the legendary coach Roque Máspoli . There was Luis Maidana in goal at the time , but before the decisive semi-final match of the Copa Libertadores in March 1965 against Santos, he made a disciplinary offense, whereupon Máspoli threw him from the team. When choosing the new goalkeeper, he then decided against Eduardo García and thus for Mazurkiewicz, which meant the "starting shot" for his career. With the Aurinegros he won the Copa Libertadores in 1966 and, after a 4-0 win over Real Madrid , the World Cup . In 1965, 1967 and 1968 he was a champion. In 1969 he also won the Intercontinental Supercup . His time with the Aurinegros lasted until 1971. On December 27, 1971, he moved from the Montevidean club, which was battered by massive economic problems at that time, to the Brazilian club Atlético Mineiro . An English daily newspaper reported at the time that the transfer fee was 35,000 pounds (approx. 100,000 dollars) and was therefore comparatively low in view of his position as an exceptional keeper. He stayed with the Brazilians until 1974 and played 89 games, conceding 67 goals. He spent the 1974/75 and 1975/76 seasons at Granada CF , but only made two appearances in the Primera División . In 1976 he was back under contract with Peñarol, but that year he moved to América de Cali before, after starting the 1978 season again at the Aurinegros as a substitute goalkeeper behind Jorge Fossati , in the same year moved on to the Chilean club Cobreloa , where he in In the two years of his club membership, he played 69 league games. In 1980 Peñarol and CD América were again his employers. With the Colombians he was used in 37 Dimayor encounters that year . In his final year of his career, he won another league title with Peñarol. In total, he ran 329 times for Peñarol in his five engagements at the club.

National team

Mazurkiewicz took part with Uruguay's selection in the junior soccer South American Championship in 1964 , in which this won the title. During the tournament he was not used by coach Juan Carlos Ranzone . The team's regular goalkeeper was Eduardo García . On May 16, 1965 he made his debut in the Uruguayan senior team . His last of a total of 36 international matches, he completed on June 23, 1974 in the World Cup tournament against Sweden.

Mazurkiewicz was also a member of the Uruguayan squads in the 1966, 1970 and 1974 World Cup tournaments. He achieved a special feat at the opening game of the 1966 World Cup against hosts England . The Uruguayan became the first non- British goalkeeper not to concede a goal in a game at Wembley . The highlight of his career was probably the 1970 World Cup in Mexico , when he finished fourth with his team and was voted the tournament's best goalkeeper. As the only opposing goalkeeper, he did not have to accept a goal from World Cup top scorer Gerd Müller . Mazurkiewicz completed a total of 13 World Cup finals for his country, making it Uruguay's record holder. He also won the title at the South American Championships in 1967 with the Celeste .

Coaching

After Mazurkiewicz worked as a coach at Peñarol in 1988 and 1989, which won the Liguilla Pre-Libertadores under his leadership in 1989 , he was later the goalkeeping coach of the Uruguayan national team for the 2002 World Cup . In 2012 he worked as a goalkeeping coach at Peñarol.

family

Leonardo Mazurkiewicz , son of Ladislao Mazurkiewicz, also played briefly in the Uruguayan Primera División. He was a defense attorney at Bella Vista .

death

On December 27, 2012, it was reported that Mazurkiewicz had been hospitalized after kidney failure and was in a serious, irreversible state of health , according to his friend Fernando Álvez . Two days later he fell into a coma. He died on January 2, 2013. His demise caused numerous reactions in the global press, especially in the South American press and among former comrades and people of football. On the occasion of his death, for example, the former Argentine national goalkeeper Ubaldo Fillol Mazurkiewicz named one of the best goalkeepers in the history of South America . Peñarol's former goalkeeper Gerardo Rabajda even classified him as the greatest of all . The Argentine television station C5N , the daily Clarín and the news agency Télam saw him as a legend , while the Chilean daily La Tercera highlighted his role as the best goalkeeper of the 1970 World Cup .
