Bernabé "Berny" Peña (born 19 October 1980 in ) is a Costa Rican football player, who currently plays for Platense. Known as the "Axeman" or "Hachero". He is also well known for telling an 18 year old player that if he did not handle playing with men, he should play in the U18 after steping on the young man's face. Currently holds the record for the soccer player with the most alimony debts in the Costa Rican Soccer History. He also has an incredible stat of seeing a red card every 3 games he plays, sometimes including the 2-game suspension.
When asked about his brutal way of playing, he once replied "You have never seen any of my rivals die after one of my fouls, so I don't see where is the dirty playing people talk about".
