Ernesto "Ennis" Hayes (10 May 1896 – 6 February 1956) was an Argentine footballer who played as a forward. He played most of his career at Rosario Central, being also called for the Argentina national team.
Together with his brother Harry, he is considered one of the first club idols.[1][2]
He won 19 trophies with Rosario Central.[1]
Early and personal life
[edit]Hayes was born in Rosario on 10 May 1896, the son of an English father.[3] His brother Harry was also a notable footballer for Rosario Central,[3] remaining nowadays as the all-time top scorer of the club.[4][5]
Club career
[edit]
He began his club career with Rosario Central at the age of 16, in 1912.[3] A year later he had a brief spell with Club Embarcadero,[6] before returning to Rosario Central, where he remained until 1923, winning several titles. He had brief tenures on Gimnasia y Esgrima de Santa Fe and Tiro Federal before returning to Rosario Central, where he would retire in 1927.[7]
Hayes is credited with 134 goals in 167 games for Rosario Central,[3] ranking second among the all-time top scorers, after his brother Harry. Other statistics state Hayes scored 154 goals in 181 matches.[7]
Hayes retired from playing on 17 April 1927, against arch-rival Newell's Old Boys. Hayes also remained the second top scorer of the Rosario derby with 9 goals, after his brother Harry (24).[7]
International career
[edit]Hayes earned 11 caps for the Argentina national team between 1915 and 1918, scoring four goals, and winning five friendly titles.[7] He also played the 1916 and 1917 South American Championships.[8]
Playing style
[edit]A skilled player, Hayes played as left insider, sometimes as right insider because of his ability with both legs.[9] On the other hand, he had a conflictive character that brought him some problems. In 1917 Hayes was banned from playing in national competitions after punching a referee in a Copa de Honor MCBA match v Racing. Nevertheless, the punishment was revoked two years later, allowing him to return to competitions.[3] A new controversy came in a match v Club Argentino, when, after dribling all rival defenders and even the goalkeeper, he stopped and sat on the ball waiting for more rivals instead of scoring a goal.[10]
