Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Other people Шаблон:Family name hatnote Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox football biography Antonio López Guerrero (Шаблон:IPA-es; born 13 September 1981) is a Spanish former professional footballer who played mainly as a left-back.
He spent most of his professional career with Atlético Madrid, appearing in more than 300 competitive matches and winning four major titles, including two Europa League trophies. Also in La Liga, he played for Osasuna and Mallorca.
López represented Spain at the 2006 World Cup.
Club career
Atlético Madrid
A product of Atlético Madrid's youth system, López was born in Benidorm, Province of Alicante.[1] He first appeared for the first team in 2000–01 while the Colchoneros were in the Segunda División, and contributed 20 matches the following season for a La Liga return, after a two-year hiatus.
Subsequently, López was loaned for two seasons to fellow top-division club CA Osasuna, where he missed only five league games.[2] During his Navarre spell he scored twice (both of the goals coming in 2002–03), most notably in a 1–0 home win against RCD Espanyol on 15 December 2002.[3]
López quickly became first-choice in his second stint at the Vicente Calderón Stadium. However, during the 2007–08 campaign he lost his position to Mariano Pernía, and would end serving more time at right-back due to injuries to teammates Giourkas Seitaridis and Juan Valera;[4] when selected, he was the side's undisputed captain.[5][6]
On 15 March 2009, López scored the winner through a rare header as Atlético came from behind 2–0 to beat Villarreal CF at home.[7] After the coach change, with former club player Abel Resino taking over from Javier Aguirre, he was made the starter, but an injury made Pernía finish the season in the starting XI.[8]
Benefitting from a road accident to Pernía in the summer, López played most of 2009–10.[9] On 2 January 2010, again with his head – but in the last minute – he netted against Sevilla FC at home to make it 2–1.[10] On 1 April, he scored in the same fashion in an eventual 2–2 draw at Valencia CF in the quarter-finals of the UEFA Europa League,[11] a competition which was won in Hamburg with him playing the entire 120 minutes of the 2–1 victory over Fulham and lifting the trophy as captain.[12]
Mallorca
In late May 2012, after 343 official games, López was released by Atlético.[13] The following month, he signed for two years with RCD Mallorca with an option for a further season.[14]
International career
López made his debut with Spain on 30 March 2005, in a 2006 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Serbia and Montenegro in Belgrade (0–0).[15] He scored his only international goal during the successful campaign, hitting home from 25 metres in the first minute of a 6–0 rout at San Marino on 12 October.[16]
Supposed to back up Asier del Horno in the final stages, López would not benefit from the former's injury days before the tournament started, as Argentine-born Pernía would be promoted to first-choice.[17] He would only appear against Saudi Arabia in Germany,[18] with Spain being eliminated in the round of 16.
