He spent most of his career withArgentinos Juniors and Italian clubLecce. At international level, he won the1986 FIFA World Cup withArgentina, and came fourth at the1987 Copa América.
Pasculli's management career was mostly spent in the lower leagues of Italian football. He also had a few months in charge ofUganda in 2003, two brief spells atDinamo Tirana in Albania and a season withBangor City in Wales.
Born inSanta Fe, Pasculli played as astriker forColón de Santa Fe andArgentinos Juniors in his native Argentina, partneringDiego Maradona at the latter.[1] In 1985 he moved toU.S. Lecce in Italy, where he became their second highest goalscorer of all time.[1] He retired from professional football in 1996, after playing forCasertana F.C. also in Italy, helping the club to gain promotion toSerie C2 (4th division). He ended his football career withPelita Jaya in Indonesia.
At international level, Pasculli won theFIFA World Cup with theArgentina national football team in1986. He started their first match againstSouth Korea alongsideJorge Valdano, and scored the only goal in the victory againstUruguay in the round of 16, but was unused for the rest of the tournament.[1]
Although Pasculli was chosen for the1987 Copa América, in which Argentina came fourth on home soil, he did not play any matches in the tournament.[2]
Following his retirement as a player in 1996, Pasculli began working as a coach, mainly in the lower leagues of Italian football.
Pasculli became manager ofUganda in May 2003, and led the team to a goalless draw withSudan in his first match inKampala.[3] He managed the team despite being unable to speak English.[4] In June, he missed the team's crucial2004 Africa Cup of Nationsqualifiers againstRwanda andGhana, as his father, whom he had not seen for over two years, was gravely ill in Argentina.[5] In September, he left the Cranes after turning down a US$24,000 contract that his agent called too low, and the representative also alleged that Pasculli had not been paid what was promised for his work.[6]
In September 2004, Pasculli was hired byFK Dinamo Tirana of theAlbanian Superliga. An article onUEFA's website called his team "lacklustre" the following month.[7] He was replaced as manager byFaruk Sejdini, and returned to the helm in January 2005 when the latter was dismissed, and Pasculli then becamedirector of football in March.[8]
On 5 October 2019, Pasculli was appointed manager ofBangor City in theCymru North, the secondtier of Welsh football, after former chairmanStephen Vaughan Jr. stepped down following a 7–0 loss toPrestatyn Town.[9] His link to the club was through new owner Domenico Serafino, an Italian musician who lived in Argentina.[1] At the end of the season, having failed to win promotion, he was replaced by his compatriotHugo Colace.[10]
