José Mauricio Manzano López (born 30 September 1943 in San Salvador) is a retired football player from El Salvador who represented his country at the 1970 FIFA World Cup in Mexico.
Manzano has represented his country in youth team selections and the senior team in 5 FIFA World Cup qualification matches as well as in one game at the 1970 FIFA World Cup Finals.[1] He was injured in the first half of that latter match against Belgium, missing the other group games as a consequence.
Retirement
After retiring as a player, Manzano left the capital for the countryside to work as an agricultural engineer for the Ministry of Agriculture. On his return to San Salvador, he picked up football again as a coach.[2]
