Club career

Rincón joined Andalusia's Real Betis for the 1981–82 season, netting 20 league goals in his second year which earned him the Pichichi Trophy, even though his team could only rank 11th.[4][5] He went on to score 93 times in all competitions for the club,[6][7][8] and retired at the end of the 1988–89 campaign aged 32 after suffering top-flight relegation.

In 2004, Rincón served briefly as Betis neighbours Xerez CD's director of football.[9] He also worked as a sports commentator for Cadena SER and Cadena COPE.[10]

Rincón played 22 times and scored ten goals for the Spain national team over three years. His debut came on 27 April 1983 in a UEFA Euro 1984 qualifier against the Republic of Ireland, in Zaragoza; in only 15 minutes of play, after replacing FC Barcelona's Francisco Carrasco, he scored the final 2–0.[11][12]

On 21 December 1983, in his sixth international, Rincón netted four times in Spain's historic 12–1 victory over Malta, in a Euro 1984 qualifying match played in Seville.[13] He would not be however picked for the finals in France, being selected two years later for the 1986 FIFA World Cup squad but making no appearances in Mexico.[14]
