Armando Sipoto Bohale Aqueriaco (born 21 April 1988), commonly known as Sipo, is a former professional footballer who played as a left-back.
He spent all but his senior career in Spain, but never in higher than Segunda División B. His professional input consisted of a combined nine matches for Pandurii (Romania) and AEK Larnaca (Cyprus).
Born in Spain, Sipo capped for the Equatorial Guinea national team.
Born in Alicante, Spain, Sipo only played lower league football in that country. He represented Alicante CF, CD Badajoz,[1] Cádiz CF, CD Teruel and CA Osasuna B in Segunda División B, and Alicante's B-team (which he helped promote from the regional leagues in his first season),[2] Torrellano Illice CF and FC Jove Español San Vicente in Tercera División.
In 2008–09, Sipo won another promotion with Alicante B but, as the first team was relegated from Segunda División, the former were also forced to drop down a level.[3] He split the 2012–13 campaign with three clubs, playing one Copa del Rey game with Cádiz[4] and also appearing for Teruel and Osasuna's reserves.
Sipo made his professional debut with CS Pandurii Târgu Jiu in Romania.[5] He scored in first appearance in Liga I, a 1–1 away draw against FC Petrolul Ploiești on 29 July 2013.[6]
Born to Equatoguinean parents, Sipo decided to represent Equatorial Guinea internationally. He made his debut on 29 March 2006 in a 2–0 friendly win against Benin in Malabo, being this the first time he entered his adopted nation.[1] [7]
Sipo was called to the squad that appeared in the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations played on home soil, being an unused member during the tournament due to an injury which he contracted in a friendly and from which he did not fully recover.[8]
