Manuel Cros

[2] In his first season at the club, he played a crucial role in helping CE Europa win the Catalan Championship in 1923 after beating Barcelona 1–0 in a play-off title-decider.

[2] Cros then played a pivotal role in helping Europa reach their first-ever Copa del Rey final in 1923, where they were beaten by Athletic Bilbao 0–1, courtesy of a goal from Travieso.

[4][9] Cros was part of the CE Europa side that participated in the first-ever edition of the Spanish League in 1929, being one of the tournament's top scorers with 11 goals.

[6] He was the first player in the history of the Spanish league to score a pure hat-trick, which he achieved on the second day against Arenas Club de Getxo.

[12] Cros was a pure center-forward by the standards of the time: A physical wonder of enormous power who was called the Tiger, a relentless auctioneer "with the charge of a buffalo".

[2] After retiring Cros coached several modest clubs such as CE Manresa (1941–42), UE Sant Andreu (1946–47), and CD Atlético Baleares (1948–49).
