Biography
Initially a footballer with FBC Piérola of Arequipa, then a physical education teacher,[1] Máximo Carrasco began his coaching career with FBC Melgar (Arequipa) in 1979. He would manage the club several times in the 1980s, leading them to the national championship in 1981.[2] He thus became the first coach to win the Peruvian league title with a club outside the Lima region.
