Joaquín Cortizo Rosendo (4 October 1932 – 4 January 2018) was a Spanish professional footballer who played as a defender.
Born in Ribadavia, Province of Ourense, Cortizo signed with local RC Celta de Vigo in 1956, aged 24. [2] He only made his La Liga debut on 14 April of the following year, in a 2–1 home win against Valencia CF; [3] he featured sparingly during his spell at Balaídos, notably due to an intestine disease. [2]
In the summer of 1958, Cortizo joined Real Zaragoza. He scored his first goal in the top division on 9 December 1962, but in a 2–4 loss away to Real Madrid; [4] during his five-year tenure he won two Copa del Generalísimo trophies as well as the 1963–64 edition of the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup, being part of the Five Magnificent teams. [5]
On 27 December 1964, Cortizo broke Atlético Madrid player Enrique Collar's leg during a 3–1 victory at La Romareda. [6] Referee Manuel Gómez Arribas did not appreciate any foul at that moment, but the player was eventually handed a 24-match ban by the Royal Spanish Football Federation, which was a national record. [7] [8] [9]
In the 1966 off-season, Cortizo moved to Real Jaén. [2] After retiring and settling in the city, he worked for the club as technical secretary as well as president. [10]
After a long illness, Cortizo died on 4 January 2018 at the age of 85, in Jaén. [11] [9]
