However, in December 2005, Calderón was fired by the [[Saudi Arabia Football Federation]] as they were dissatisfied by the team's poor showing in the [[Football at the 2005 West Asian Games|2005 West Asian Games]] after a defeat to [[Iraq national football team|Iraq]], and was replaced by [[Marcos Paqueta]].
