'''Luis Antonio Carniglia''' (4 October 1917 – 22 June 2001) was an Argentine [[Forward (association football)#Striker|football striker]] and manager. He played for [[Club Atlético Boca Juniors|Boca Juniors]] in the 1930s, but is probably best known for managing [[Real Madrid CF|Real Madrid]] in the 1950s.
Luis Carniglia was buried in [[La Recoleta Cemetery]] in Buenos Aires.

==Playing career==
Born in [[Olivos, Buenos Aires|Olivos]], Carniglia began his career in the fourth division club Club de Olivos, in 1932. He remained there for one season before joining [[Club Atlético Tigre|Tigre]], but this was only a stepping stone on his way to completing his childhood dream of playing for [[Boca Juniors]], whom he signed for in 1936. His debut, for Boca, was in a friendly played in Parana and was quite a spectacle. Carniglia had a goal within 3 minutes and a fractured left arm by the fifth minute.<ref name="obituary_carniglia">{{cite web|url=http://www.ayudatareas.com.ar/noticias2/39/archivo-ac3304.shtml|title=Obituary for Luis Carniglia|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20070927013934/http://www.ayudatareas.com.ar/noticias2/39/archivo-ac3304.shtml|archivedate=27 September 2007}} (Spanish)</ref> Boca went on to win the game 3–0. He was part of the Boca side that won the 1940 [[Primera Division Argentina|Argentine First Division]] and the [[Copa Dr. Carlos Ibarguren]].

1941 was a turn for the worse in his professional career, in a game against [[Club Atlético San Lorenzo de Almagro|San Lorenzo]], Carniglia broke his leg.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.informexeneize.com.ar/biografia_luis_carniglia.htm|title=Boca Juniors profile|access-date=19 April 2008|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190416154228/http://www.informexeneize.com.ar/biografia_luis_carniglia.htm|archive-date=16 April 2019|url-status=dead}} (Spanish)</ref> The recovery took three years which he spent at [[Chacarita Juniors]] and [[Club Atlas|Atlas]], though he was never the same player again. He prolonged his career by playing in the French [[Ligue 1]] and [[Ligue 2]] with [[SC Toulon|Toulon]] and [[OGC Nice|Nice]], transitioning into the role of manager with Nice. That is not to say that his final years as a player were entirely fruitless, he won the Ligue 1 title and a [[Coupe de France]] in 1952, and the Coupe de France again in 1954, all with Nice.

==Managerial career==
Following his return to [[OGC Nice|Nice]] in 1953, Carniglia played two more seasons before retiring as a player and taking over the reins as the new Nice manager, from the British manager [[Bill Berry (footballer, born 1904)|George Berry]]. He had immediate success winning the [[Ligue 1]] title with Nice in his first year. The following season, 1956–57, saw Nice finish 13th in Ligue 1. Carniglia then left to take over the Spanish giants [[Real Madrid CF|Real Madrid]].<ref>[https://www.rsssf.org/players/madrid-coach.html rsssf: Real Madrid managers]</ref> Nice replaced him with the French coach [[Jean Luciano]].

Carniglia was Real Madrid head coach from June 1957 to July 1959 with a two-month stop from February 1959 due to a renal colic. Madrid, at the time, had some of the greatest footballing talent in the world with [[Alfredo di Stéfano]] (holder of the [[Ballon d'Or]] at the time), [[Francisco Gento]], [[Raymond Kopa]] and [[Héctor Rial]]. These greats were joined in 1957 by [[José Santamaría]] and [[Ferenc Puskás]] in 1958. Carniglia did not have a high opinion of Puskás when he arrived, as he had not played professionally in over a year and was considerably over weight. Carniglia whipped him into shape with Puskás losing 15&nbsp;kg before his first [[La Liga]] game against [[Real Oviedo|Oviedo]].<ref name="puskas_bio">{{cite web|url=http://www.nemzetisport.hu/cikk.php?cikk=128304&fejezet=3|title=Ferenc Puskás Biography|date=5 December 2006}}</ref> Carniglia left Puskás out of the 1959 European cup final, which led to his being sacked by [[Santiago Bernabéu Yeste|Santiago Bernabéu]],<ref name="puskas_bio"/> the chairman of Real. Carniglia's time with Real was the most fruitful in his management career, winning the [[UEFA Champions League|European Cup]] twice, in [[European Cup 1957–58|1958]] with a 3–2 win over [[A.C. Milan]] and in [[European Cup 1958–59|1959]] with a 2–0 win over [[Stade Reims|Reims]]. He also won the La Liga title in [[La Liga 1957-58|1958]].

Carniglia had short spells at [[ACF Fiorentina|Fiorentina]] and [[A.S. Bari|Bari]] before joining [[AS Roma|Roma]] in 1961. With Roma, he won the [[Inter-Cities Fairs Cup 1960-61|1961]] [[Inter-Cities Fairs Cup|Fairs Cup]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.rsssf.org/ec/ec196061det.html|title=RSSSF Fairs Cup 1960–61 statistics}}</ref>
Following his mid season departure from Roma in 1963, apparently due to arguments with the club directors,<ref name="rsssf_interview">{{cite web|url=https://www.rsssf.org/rssbest/greatestgame.html|title=RSSSF – Fragments of an interview}}</ref> he took over at A.C. Milan, the team he had beaten in the [[1958 European Cup Final]]. Milan were the reigning European Cup holders and competed in the [[Intercontinental Cup (1960–2004)|Intercontinental Cup]]. They played the [[Brazil]]ian side [[Santos Futebol Clube|Santos]] featuring [[Pelé]] at the height of his prowess in the final 1963 final. Milan won the opening game 4 – 2 in [[Milan]], Pelé scoring both goals for Santos. Before the second leg rumors began to circulate that the [[Argentina|Argentinian]] referee had been bribed,<ref name="rsssf_interview"/> Milan tried to have match official changed but were barred from doing so. Santos won the second game 4 – 2, without Pelé who was injured. With the two leg final a stalemate, a third decisive play-off game took place in [[Santos (São Paulo)|Santos]] just 48 hours after the second leg. The same match official was used for the playoff game. In the third minute, of the playoff, [[Giovanni Trapattoni]] was adjudged to have fouled a player in the box and Santos had a penalty, which they duly converted. [[Cesare Maldini]] protested and was sent off. Santos won the fixture 1 – 0.

Following his retirement as a coach Carniglia had a spell as General Manager of Boca Juniors with [[Silvio Marzolini]] as the coach. He was the first president of FAA (Futbolistas Argentinos Agremiados), his home country's footballers union.

==Personal life==
His son [[:it:Luis César Carniglia|Luis César Carniglia]] was also a footballer. he spent his entire career in [[Italy]] playing some [[Serie A]] matches before lowering to amateurs leagues.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.magliarossonera.it/protagonisti/Gioc-Carniglia.html|title = Luis Cesar jr. Carniglia}}</ref> Lot of media and references mistakenly consider father and sons to be the same person.
