About Ubaldo Fillol

Ubaldo Matildo Fillol, nicknamed el Pato, is an Argentine former professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper. He took part in the 1974, 1978 and 1982 World Cups representing the Argentina national team. He also played in the South American qualifiers for the 1986 World Cup, but he was finally not chosen for the final team that played in Mexico.
