Héctor Pedro Scarone Beretta (26 November 1898 – 4 April 1967) was a Uruguayan footballer who was considered one of the best players in the world during his time.[1]
Club career[]
At club level, Scarone spent most of his career with Nacional, with whom he won the Uruguayan championship eight times. He scored a total of 301 goals for the club in 369 appearances.
He also played for Spanish side FC Barcelona, and Inter Milan and Palermo in Italy.
International career[]
He won the South American Championship four times: in 1917, 1923, 1924, and 1926, and the Olympic gold medal twice:[2] in 1924 and 1928 recognized as FIFA World Cup.[3][4]
At the age of 19, he scored the goal that gave Uruguay the title at the 1917 South American Championship, in the final against Argentina, his fourth international match.
Scarone finished his international career by leading Uruguay to the 1930 FIFA World Cup, and although his international career ended that same year, the 31 goals in 52 matches (actually 52, but 21 goals were in unofficial matches) he scored for his country stood until as of 2011 as the national record.
