Daniel Alejandro Lembo Betancor (born 15 February 1978 in Montevideo) is an Uruguayan footballer who plays for Club Atlético Belgrano in Argentina, mainly as a central defender.
[edit] Club career
Lembo started playing for Club Atlético Bella Vista, representing it between 1997 and 2000. He made 56 appearances, scoring five goals. In July 2000, he signed for Serie A's Parma AC, but left without playing a single game. He returned to Uruguay and joined Club Nacional de Football, scoring 10 goals from 109 games.
Lembo signed for Real Betis for 2003–04,[1] and played in 46 La Liga matches scoring once, in a 1–0 home win over Celta de Vigo, on 31 January 2004. Although playing a major role in the side's 2004–05 Copa del Rey run, he was dropped for the final, and would only appear in four league matches in the next two seasons combined, mainly due to injuries.[2]
Lembo returned to his homeland and hometown in 2007–08, signing with Danubio F.C. but, the following season, on 26 June 2008, he signed a two-year contract with Aris Thessaloniki FC, in Greece.
[edit] International career
Lembo made 38 international appearances for Uruguay, scoring two goals. He made his debut on 17 June 1999, in a 3–2 friendly win with Paraguay, in a match played in Ciudad del Este. He would take part in that year's Copa América, as Uruguay finished second to Brazil, netting in the 1–1 semifinal match against Chile (penalty shootout win).
Lembo was part of the nation's squad at the 2002 FIFA World Cup, playing the 90 minutes in the draws against France and Senegal.[3]
