Abel Resino height - How tall is Abel Resino?

Resino returned to Granada on 19 January 2015, replacing the dismissed Joaquín Caparrós at the helm of the bottom-placed team. He was relieved of his duties on 1 May, after only being able to climb one position in the table.

Resino was appointed at Granada CF on 22 January 2012, replacing Fabri González following a 0–3 away loss at RCD Espanyol, fired even though the club was still out of the relegation zone. On 18 February of the following year he returned to active and the top flight, taking the place of Paco Herrera at relegation-threatened side RC Celta de Vigo.

In early December 2010, Abel was appointed head coach of Real Valladolid in the second division, replacing the dismissed Antonio Gómez. His first game in charge produced nine goals, a 4–5 home loss against CD Numancia.

Nicknamed El Gato (The Cat) due to his reflexes, he played most of his professional career at Atlético Madrid. For roughly one year, starting in early 2009, he also coached the club, helping it qualify once for the Champions League.

After one and a half solid seasons in the second level with CD Castellón, Resino returned to Atlético, replacing released Javier Aguirre in February 2009 and helping the team to exactly the same place as the previous year, with the subsequent qualification to the UEFA Champions League, after which he agreed to an extension. On 23 October he was fired following a poor string of results – only one win in the league from seven matches, the culmination being the 0–4 group stage defeat at Chelsea for the Champions League.

After retiring, Resino returned to Atlético in different periods and capacities (goalkeeper coach, sporting director). In 2005 he started his head coaching career, with second division's Ciudad de Murcia, leading the side to a near-top level promotion after finishing fourth.

Leaving the Colchoneros precisely before the team's double conquest in 1995–96, Abel closed out his career at the age of 36 after one season with Madrid neighbours Rayo Vallecano, helping them retain their top division status. He played in two 1991 friendlies with Spain, the first being on 27 March in a 4–2 defeat to Hungary and the second with Romania the following month.

Abel held the record for the longest clean sheet in La Liga at 1,275 minutes, finally being beaten by Luis Enrique of Sporting de Gijón on 19 March 1991. This record was also the European record in a single season until 2009, when Edwin van Der Sar from Manchester United broke it against Fulham.

Born in Velada, Province of Toledo, Abel arrived at Atlético Madrid in 1982 from lowly CD Ciempozuelos after also having represented local CD Toledo, but would have to wait five years (four of those spent with the reserve side, only managing to be first-choice in his third season) to become a starter. He went on to amass over 300 overall appearances for the club, winning back-to-back Copa del Rey trophies.

Abel Resino Gómez (born 2 February 1960), sometimes known just as Abel, is a Spanish retired footballer who played as a goalkeeper, and a manager.
