Pasquale Marino (born July 13, 1962 in Marsala) is an Italian football coach.
In his playing career, started for his home team, Marsala, Marino never played in divisions higher than Serie C1, and ended his career for Catania in 1996/1997. His coaching career begun in 1997/1998 for Serie D team Milazzo, where he nearly won the league at his debut, ending in second place. However, his outbreak came at Paternò, which he led on two consecutive promotions from Serie D to Serie C1. He then signed for Serie C2 Foggia, which he led to an immediate Serie C1 promotion. He made his Serie B debut in 2004/2005 with Arezzo, replacing Mario Somma. Fired in the half-season and replaced by Marco Tardelli, he was successively recalled at the helm of the team, ending in a fourteenth place.
Since 2005, he is coach of Calcio Catania: in his first season for the rossoblu, Marino brought the team back to Serie A after over 20 years. He also coached Catania in its 2006-07 Serie A campaign: after a very impressive start that brought Catania up to the highest table positions, Catania experienced a negative streak following the riots in the Sicilian derby which caused the death of a policeman and resulted in the Catania home stadium to be disqualified for the remainder of the season. After Catania saved in the last matchday thanks to a 2-1 win to relegation rivals Chievo, Marino announced he was going to leave his post. He later signed a 4-year contract with Udinese.
Pasquale Marino is considered amongst the most interesting young Italian football managers: notably, he is widely known for his attacking 3-4-3 (or 4-3-3) style, which reminds to Zdenek Zeman's.
