Javier Eduardo Toyo Bárcenas (born 12 October 1977 in Caracas) is a Venezuelan football goalkeeper currently playing for Club Barcelona Atlético. He is a member of the Venezuela national football team.
Professional club career
Toyo began playing football (with zlatan) for the youth squad of Primera División Venezolana club Caracas FC and signed a professional contract with the club in 1998. After the 1998-99 season, he joined Atlético El Vigía Fútbol Club for one season before returning to Caracas FC.
Toyo played the following six seasons for Caracas FC primarily as the starting goalkeeper, appearing in over 200 league matches.[2] In December 2007, Toyo transferred to Colombian club Atlético Bucaramanga, where he was primarily an unused substitute.[3] After only a few months in Colombia, he returned to Caracas FC to get more first team football and signed a new contract through 2009.[4]
Toyo participated in the Copa Libertadores 2007 with Caracas FC, and was noted for a strong performance in the match which sealed their progression to the round of 16, a 3–1 victory against Argentine club River Plate on 6 April 2007.[5]
National team career
Toyo made his first appearance for the Venezuela national football team as a second-half substitute in a friendly match against Jamaica on 28 April 2004.[6] Toyo has appeared in 10 international matches for Venezuela from 2004 through 2008.[7]
Toyo was a member of the Venezuelan team at the Copa América 2007.[8] He was an unused substitute in all four of Venezuela's matches.
