Rodrigo Mario Morínigo Acosta (born 7 October 1998) is a Paraguayan professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Libertad and the Paraguay national team.
Born in Lambaré, Morínigo was a Libertad youth graduate and was promoted to the main squad in 2017. He made his first team – and Primera División – debut on 15 April 2018, coming on as a second-half substitute for field player Iván Ramírez as Carlos Servin was sent off in a 2–1 home loss to Sportivo Luqueño.[1]
Morínigo spent the following three seasons as a third-choice behind Martín Silva and Servin, later becoming a backup option ahead of Ignacio Don midway through the 2022 season. In March 2024, he became a first-choice after Silva suffered a facial injury.[2]
On 31 May 2024, Morínigo was called up to the Paraguay national team for friendlies against Peru, Chile and Panama.[3]
Morínigo made his debut on 24 June 2024 in a Copa América game against Colombia. He played the full game in Paraguay's 1–2 loss.[4]
