[edit] Playing career

Ischia played for Chacarita Juniors and Vélez Sársfield in Argentina as well as representing the Argentina national football team[2].

In 1984 Ischia moved to Colombia where he played for América de Cali and Junior. He retired in 1989 due to injury.

[edit] Managerial career

Ischia was field assistant for Carlos Bianchi at Vélez Sársfield and Boca Juniors[3] before becoming first team coach at Vélez.

In 2004 Ischia was appointed as manager of Gimnasia de La Plata. In 2005 he took over at Junior in Colombia, but left later that year due to differences with the directors and constant media pressure[4]. In 2007 he was appointed the new manager of struggling Rosario Central[5].

Ischia then took over at struggling Rosario Central, but after 14 games of the Apertura 2007 Ischia resigned with the club bottom of the table and perilously close to the automatic relegation places[6].

In December 2007 Ischia was appointed as the new manager of Boca Juniors after the resignation of Miguel Ángel Russo.
