Luis Alberto Rijo was a Uruguayan footballer who played as a forward for Central Español, a club in Montevideo. He was born on 28 September 1927 and died on 8 May 2001. Although he never played an international match, he was part of the Uruguay national team squad that won the 1950 FIFA World Cup, the tournament remembered for the decisive final round match against Brazil at the Maracana. His place in the Atlas rests on that world championship squad membership and his club career as a forward.
