Club career

Miguel Ángel Oviedo began his football career in 1973 with Instituto Atlético Central in his hometown of Córdoba. After a year with the club, he moved within Córdoba and joined CA Talleres , the then best club in the second largest city in Argentina. At Talleres he played alongside other well-known Argentinian players of the time such as José Daniel Valencia and Luis Galván . In his eight years at Talleres, Miguel Oviedo did not win a title, but with a second (1977) and a third place (1980) he narrowly missed the first win of the Argentine football championship a few times. In 1983, Miguel Oviedo left Talleres de Córdoba and joined CA Independiente from Avellaneda , an industrial suburb of Buenos Aires . In his first season with Independiente Oviedo won his first Argentine championship, the Metropolitano competition in 1983. With this title Independiente was qualified for the Copa Libertadores of the year 1984 . The competition, which Independiente had won six times before, could be won. In the final, they beat the Brazilian representative Gremio Porto Alegre 1-0 and 0-0. Miguel Oviedo was not used in the finals. 1986 Oviedo left Independiente after three years and only nine league games and returned to Córdoba to CA Talleres. After another season he went to Ingeniero Maschwitz, a city in the province of Buenos Aires , where the club Deportivo Armenio, at that time a first division club, is at home. Miguel Oviedo played there from 1987 to 1992 before ending his career at CA Los Andes in Buenos Aires from 1992 to 1993.

National team

Miguel Oviedo was also used in the Argentine national soccer team. He played a total of 10 international matches. National coach César Luis Menotti called him into the squad for the 1978 World Cup in his own country. At the tournament, however, he only came in one game, the scandalous 6-0 in the intermediate round match against Peru . He failed to score in the game that the Argentine team won with the help of the military junta in the country that bribed the Peruvian team. With this win, Menotti's team reached the final, where they won 3-1 after extra time against the Netherlands at the Estadio Monumental in Buenos Aires . Miguel Oviedo was not used in the final.
