Miguel Ángel Brindisi

Miguel Ángel Brindisi de Marco (born 8 October 1950) is an Argentine football coach and former player.

Whilst at Las Palmas he helped them to the 1978 Copa del Rey Final where his goal was unable to prevent them losing 3–1 to FC Barcelona.

Managed by César Menotti, that squad is widely regarded as one of the best Argentine teams ever, with Brindisi being a key player along with René Houseman, Carlos Babington and Omar Larrosa.

Coached by Silvio Marzolini, Brindisi made a memorable duo with Diego Maradona, also scoring many goals for the team.

Brindisi took over at Club Atlético Lanús in 2003, then became manager of Boca Juniors in July 2004, but resigned after only 22 games following a defeat to River Plate.
