Alfredo Rojas

Rojas was born in Lanús, Buenos Aires Province. He started playing with Club Atlético Lanús in 1958, but his participation in the 1958 FIFA World Cup opened a door to Europe for him. He joined Celta de Vigo in mid-1959, but the club was relegated, Rojas moved on to play for Real Betis in 1959. Rojas returned to Argentina after signing for River Plate, but he spent most of the time sitting on the bench. It was not until 1962, when he moved to Club de Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata, that El Tanque gained some importance in the Argentine football, scoring 17 goals. After another season with the team from La Plata, Rojas was transferred to Boca Juniors. Nicknamed El Tanque ("the tank") Rojas played four seasons with Boca Juniors, winning the 1965 Argentine Championship, and becoming one of the most important and beloved Boca players of the 1960s. From 1964 to 1968 he played 102 league matches, scoring 46 goals. In 1968 Boca Juniors released Rojas. After a stint with Uruguayan club Peñarol, he ended his career playing for O'Higgins (1970–1971) and Universidad Católica (1972) in Chile. With the Argentina national team, Rojas played in the 1958 and 1966 FIFA World Cup, and won the 1964 Taça das Nações (Nations Cup).
