Octavio Muciño (born May 14, 1950 in Jasso , Hidalgo , † June 3, 1974 in Guadalajara , Jalisco ), also known by the nickname El Centavo , was a Mexican football player on the position of the center forward .
Life
society
As a football talent born in the small town of Jasso, it was obvious that Muciño should begin his footballing career with the local CD Cruz Azul and had chosen star striker Fernando Bustos, who played there, as his role model.
On November 2, 1969, he made his professional debut in the Mexican Primera División in a 1-1 draw against the Rayados de Monterrey .
After five seasons in which he had scored a total of 47 goals and won three championship titles, Muciño moved to Mexico's most popular club Chivas Guadalajara before the 1973/74 season . With the Chivas Rayadas he also completed the last season of his young life. Just two weeks after his 24th birthday, he got into an argument in a bar in his new home in Guadalajara and was struck down with three bullets by his opponent. Four days later, Octavio Muciño Valdez succumbed to his serious injuries and died.
National team
Between 1971 and 1973 Muciño completed a total of 16 missions for the Mexican national team , in which he scored seven goals. His first two goals helped Mexico to a 2-1 win over Honduras on December 4, 1971, his third international goal came in a 2-1 win on April 5, 1972 against Peru. On December 8, 1973 he scored four goals in an 8-0 win against the Netherlands Antilles.
