Pedro Romero (soccer player)
Pedro Romero (born April 12, 1937 ), also known by the nickname El Bucky , is a retired Mexican soccer player who played in defense or in defensive midfield .
Life
society
His professional career probably began at Club León , from which he moved to Deportivo Toluca FC in 1958 . Whether "Bucky" Romero was part of the winning team at Club León, which won the Copa México in the 1957/58 season, is incomprehensible due to the limited sources. What is certain is that from then on he was under contract with Toluca and won the championship of the 1966/67 season with this club . After finishing his professional career, he played in the most important amateur and leisure league of the capital district , the Liga Española de Fútbol .
One of the highlights of his career was the participation in the team of Club Necaxa , which won 4: 3 on February 2, 1961 in an international friendly tournament against Pelés FC Santos .
National team
Although "El Bucky" Romero was part of the Mexican World Cup squad in 1962 , he was not used in the World Cup itself or in any other game of the Mexican national team and was therefore without an international appearance.
References and comments
- ↑ Since Romero did not participate in the Supercup finals against Atlas de Guadalajara in the following season 1967/68 nor is listed in the Tolucas championship of the same season, it can be assumed that he ended his professional career at the end of the 1966/67 season. However, he could also have been a substitute or a long-term injury.
