Mario Sebastián Viera Galaín (born 7 March 1983) is a Uruguayan professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper and formerly captained Colombian club Atlético Junior currently retired as of July 2023
Eventually, Viera signed with Villarreal CF in Spain, moving alongside Mariano Barbosa (also a goalkeeper) on a four-year contract.[3] He would be an undisputed starter the following two seasons, although he missed both legs of the 2005–06 UEFA Champions League semi-finals against Arsenal.[4][5]
Viera eventually lost his job midway through the 2007–08 campaign to newly signed Diego López, and never regained it again – no La Liga games in 2008–09 – being released in July 2009.[6] On 11 November he signed a one-and-a-half-year contract with Greek side Athlitiki Enosi Larissa FC,[7] being made eligible to play however only in January 2010; his contract was terminated late into that year,[8] and he joined Atlético Junior shortly after, remaining in Colombia for several years.[9][10][11]
