Marco Aldair Rodríguez Iraola (born 6 August 1994), is a Peruvian professional footballer who plays as a striker for Peruvian club Cienciano. Aldair came into fame after breaking the leg of Robert Rojas during a game for the Copa Libertadores tournament in Peru. Aldair, frustrated by his performance during the match, assaulted Robert Rojas knocking him to the ground, and kicking lower leg causing a fracture of the tibia. Aldair did not apologize to the injured player but instead opted to hurl insults while the player agonized on the ground.[1]
Club career

Early in 2014, he returned to Alianza Lima but shortly after was transferred as free agent to club Universidad César Vallejo as part of the negotiations between Alianza Lima and Universidad César Vallejo for the footballer Víctor Cedrón.[6] However, in September 2014 returned to Alianza Lima on loan from Universidad César Vallejo for the rest of the 2014 season and all the 2015 season.[7][8] In the 2014 Torneo Clausura he had no participation while in the 2015 season he just made 11 appearances without scoring goals.
