After spells with
Deportivo Español and
Colón Yudica's first major achievement in management was saving struggling
Quilmes from relegation in 1977. He eclipsed this the following season by leading them to their first and only
Primera division title;
Metropolitano 1978. After this he won two
Second division titles with
Quilmes and
San Lorenzo. Yudica made his return to the big time by leading
Argentinos Juniors to victory in
Nacional. The
Copa Libertadores campaign of
1985 was one of the most remarkable in the history of the tournament.
Argentinos found themselves in the same 1st round group as fellow Argentinian team
Ferro Carril Oeste, at the end of the group the two teams were tied for first place on nine points, this required a playoff, which
Argentinos won 3–1.
Argentinos won the 2nd group stage outright, to claim a place in the final against Colombian side
América de Cali (fierce rivals of ''Yudica's'' former club, Deportivo Cali). The final was a two legged affair, but both games finished 1–0 to the home team, requiring a cup final playoff but this game ended 1–1,
Argentinos Juniors finally triumphed after a 5–4 victory in a penalty shootout. Yudica led
Argentinos to a further international title in 1986 winning the less prestigious
Copa Interamericana against
Defence Force from
Trinidad and Tobago. After his successes with
Argentinos Yudica returned to Newell's Old Boys, the club at which he began his playing career over 30 years before. He led them to the
Primera division title in 1987–88, winning him the unique distinction of becoming the first manager ever to lead three different teams to the Argentine league title. Later in his career Yudica returned to manage Deportivo Cali, and also had a spell in charge of
C.F. Pachuca in Mexico. ==Honours==
