Domingo Acedo

Domingo Gómez-Acedo y Villanueva (6 June 1898 – 14 September 1980), also known as Txomin Acedo, was a Spanish footballer who played primarily as a left-sided forward and sometimes as a left back. Acedo was in the Spain national team that competed in the 1920 Summer Olympics, and won the silver medal. He had not been registered officially as a player with Athletic for the requisite six months, and the club were sanctioned by the federation.

Acedo is also the club's youngest player and scorer in the Copa del Rey having found the net on his debut in that competition on 25 April 1915, aged 16 years, 10 months and 19 days (neither Muniain nor Gainza played in the cup before turning 17).

International career On 28 August 1920, Otero was among national team history as one of the eleven footballers who played in the first game of the Spain national team for the 1920 Summer Olympics, in an eventual 1–0 victory over Denmark. He featured in three more games at the tournament, scoring the winning goal against Sweden and starting in the play-off for the silver medal against the Netherlands, which Spain won 3–1. In total, he earned 11 caps for Spain between 1920 and 1924, scoring 1 goal.

With Athletic playing in the local league, he was summoned to play for the Biscay autonomous football team, and was a member of the team that participated in the 1922–23 Prince of Asturias Cup, an inter-regional competition organized by the RFEF. In the quarter-finals against Asturias on 13 November 1922, Acedo imprinted his name in the competition's history with an late equaliser in extra-time to level the scores at 2–2 and force a second extra period in which Asturas prevailed as 4–3 winners.
