		Passarella became the first Argentine to lift the World Cup in front of 77,000 delirious fans in Buenos Aires.
		Passarella played again in 1982, but Argentina's defense stalled in the second round, although Passarella scored a memorable freekick in a 2-1 defeat by Italy.

	Soccer News, April 22, 1998
		Passarella, despite the goodwill that has endured after his captaincy of the team that won the World Cup for the first time in 1978, was heavily criticised during Argentina's qualifying campaign and there was a very negative reaction also to last week's loss.
		Passarella and his players gave freely of their time at a huge press conference that was attended by scores of journalists, radio and tv crews from Argentina, England, several other Continental countries and Japan, whose team will compete in the same group in France.
		Passarella, a strict disciplinarian, famously announced that he was banning long hair, drug-taking and homosexuals from his squad but denied that Redondo's ponytail hair-style had kept him out.

		Argentina's 1978 World Cup-winning captain, the powerful Daniel Passarella was an inspiration to his team.

		Passarella was coach to the national side in the 1998 World Cup Finals, after which he resigned.

	SignOnSanDiego.com > Sports -- Rayados win first Mexican title since '86
		Argentine legend Daniel Passarella took over as coach of perennial underachiever Monterrey last summer and promptly went 5-7-7 in Mexico's Apertura season, finishing fourth in its group and missing the playoffs.
		Passarella's Monterrey Rayados won the Clausura title in Mexico's split season last night, holding host Morelia to a 0-0 draw in the second leg of the final series and claiming the championship based on Wednesday night's 3-1 win in the first leg.
		As a player, Passarella was a tough defender known for scoring goals (he had an incredible 22 in 70 appearances with Argentina's national team).

		The coacher of Argentina's football selection, Daniel Passarella, said he would not invite a homosexual player to join the team, during a long interview published by El Grafico [a very popular sports magazine].
		By saying this, we only wish to make clear that Passarella is wrong when he says he would not invite homosexual players because he has already invited them to join the team; we know perfectly well that in the previous selection team as well as in the current one there are gay players.
		Carlos Jauregui refuted Passarella using the worst of all possible arguments, may be because he does not know the football community well enough.

		Redondo originally fell out with Passarella over the length of the player's hair but the row has become personal and a midfielder who would be certain of a place in just about every other finalist in France 98 is likely to be a World Cup outcast.
		Passarella, who helped Argentina win the 1978 World Cup, has clear views on most things and can be rigid to the point of refusing to compromise.
		Passarella will be judged by what Argentina achieve in France 98, when for the first time in five World Cups they will be without Diego Maradona.

		For all the talk about Passarella's preference for England rather than Romania, as opponents at this stage, in fact the coach was more concerned with geography than the relative merits of Hagi and Beckham.
		As a warm-up exercise, Passarella had the squad form up around the centre circle and pass the ball to one another while two players took turns to intercept as piggies in the middle.

	ESPNsoccernet - Global - Passarella pays price for faltering start
		Passarella at one stage enjoyed an 11-match unbeaten run at the club, mainly in the season-opening Paulista championship, but two humiliating losses in the space of five days made his position untenable.
		Passarella also angered some directors by effectively firing goalkeeper Fabio Costa last week while rumours of internal squabbling among the players were heightened by a training ground fistfight involving Tevez and defender Marquinhos 10 days ago.
		Brazilian media say that a penalty clause in Passarella's contract entitles him to more than $1 million if he is sacked and to continue receiving his salary until the end of the year.

		Beforehand, Passarella, who recently succeeded Renzo Ulivieri coach, had asked his players to show some mettle against the Turin club which is exactly what they were doing when fellow Argentinian Almeyda was shown a straight red card for a challenge on Edgar Davids.
		A change of tactics by Passarella to 4-4-2 has done nothing for the fortunes of the former AS Roma midfield player Hideotoshi Nakata, who is as much a peripheral figure as he was under the previous coach.

	Washingtonpost.com: Group H: Nothing Here Will Slow Down Argentina
		Coach Daniel Passarella has been criticized for his heavy-handed approach, but it was largely a necessity if he was to restore order to the undisciplined, truculent team that turned off much of the world with its petulant display in the 1994 World Cup in the United States.
		The blend of this team is best exemplified by Diego Simeone, the inspirational Internazionale Milano defensive midfielder who is in his prime at only 28 but has been in the national team for a decade and leads the squad with almost 70 caps.
		Passarella may finally have exorcised that ghost, and Argentina comes to France with immense talent, solid experience, steely determination and resolute direction.
