Pedro Damián Monzón (born February 23, 1962 in Goya ) is a former Argentine football player and current coach . As an active player, he was active for a long time for Independiente Avellaneda and won several titles with the club. He also took part in the 1990 World Cup.
Career
Club career
Pedro Monzón, born in 1962 in the provincial town of Goya , began playing football at the Unión de Santa Fe club , where he was under contract for a year from 1980 to 1981, but only made seven appearances in the first team. Nevertheless, he was discovered by talent scouts of the top club CA Independiente from the Bonaren suburb of Avellaneda and directed to this club. In the following ten years until 1991, Monzón spent his most successful time as a football player wearing the Independiente jersey. Under coach José Pastoriza and with players such as Néstor Clausen , Jorge Burruchaga or Enzo Trossero , they won the Copa Libertadores in 1984 by beating Gremio Porto Alegre in the final . A little later, they won the World Cup against Liverpool . However, Pedro Monzón did not work as a regular player in these successes. In the World Cup he was substituted on in the 74th minute for Hugo Villaverde , in the two finals for the Libertadores Cup he was denied missions.
Overall, Pedro Monzón played in 191 league games for Independiente Avellaneda from 1981 to 1991, scoring eight goals. For the 1992 season, he began a series of short engagements at various clubs, but failed to achieve great success. He played in Ecuador for Barcelona SC Guayaquil , in Argentina for CA Huracán , Quilmes AC and Atlético Tucumán , in Peru for Alianza Lima and in Chile for the Santiago Wanderers . In 1996, Pedro Monzón's football career also ended in the Wanderers' jersey at the age of 34 after he was suspended for doping .
He then became a coach, but he has not been able to achieve any great success in this role to this day. He coached the Chacarita Juniors in Argentina, CD Veracruz in Mexico and Club Olmedo in Ecuador. As Olmedo's coach, Monzón made headlines when he was suspended for two months after an attack on the referee.
National team
Between 1988 and 1990 Pedro Monzón made a total of fifteen international matches in the jersey of the Argentina national football team . After taking part in the 1988 Summer Olympics and the 1989 Copa America , he was appointed to the South American squad for the 1990 World Cup in Italy by national coach Carlos Bilardo . During the tournament, Monzón was used in about half of the Argentine team's games, including in the final against Germany . In that final on July 8, 1990 in the Olympic Stadium in Rome , Pedro Monzón came on for Oscar Ruggeri in the second half . Twenty minutes after being substituted on, the defender had to leave the field again after a foul on Jürgen Klinsmann and a resulting red card. He was the first player ever to see the red card in a final of the soccer world championship . A good twenty minutes later, Gustavo Dezotti, a second Argentinian player followed. Ultimately, the Bilardo team went as a loser in the final and could not defend the 1986 title. He scored his only international goal in a 1-1 draw against Romania at the 1990 World Cup.
