Carlos Morete

Posted inArgentina

“El Puma” Morete was one of the most prolific Argentine strikers during 70s. A strong and determined player, he began his career with River Plate, where he played from 1970 to 1975. With the Millonarios, he won a Metropolitano and Nacional tournament in 1975 and in the same year he signed for the Spanish team Las Palmas. He was one of the key players of that team, scoring 80 goals in five seasons. With the Canarians he reached an incredible 4th place in La Liga and qualified for the UEFA Cup in the next season, where they reached the second round. After a brief spell at Sevilla in 1980/81, he returned in Argentina to play for Boca Juniors, where he won a league title. After just a season he moved to Talleres where he scored 20 goals in 20 matches and in 1982 signed for Independiente where he won another league title and was twice runner-up. In his last three seasons, he played for Argentinos Juniors where he was not a regular but won two league titles and the 1985 Copa Libertadores. He also played 4 times and scored one goal for the Argentine national team.

Alberto Tarantini

Posted inArgentina

Legendary left-back, world champion in 1978 with Argentina, Alberto Tarantini, nicknamed “Conejo”, began his career at Boca Juniors, where he won a National Championship, and a Metropolitano in 1976, and the Libertadores in 1977.

After the 1978 World Cup triumphs, where he was inducted in the team of the tournament, he moved to Birmingham City where he played for one season, ended with relegation to the Second Division.

He returned to Argentina, at Talleres de Córdoba, before moving on to River Plate where he won a Campeonato Nacional and a Metropolitano.

In 1982 he took part in the disappointing World Cup in Spain, which ended with the elimination in the second round. However, Tarantini was among the best of the Argentine team.

In 1983 he moved to France, to Bastia, for a single season and then to Toulouse, where he remained until 1988, obtaining good results such as fourth place in Division 1 in 1986 and third in 1987. He concluded his career at San Gallo in 1989.

In 2015, the AFA inducted Tarantini in the Argentine team of all time.
