Player career

As a footballer, Roșca was the goalkeeper of Divizia A teams Rapid București and Chimia Râmnicu Vâlcea.[2] Roșca promoted with Chimia in the top-flight in 1978 and is considered one of the best goalkeepers in the history of the club.[3] "Vicky" Roșca played in 126 matches for Chimia and scored a goal, one of the few goalkeepers that scored in the Liga I.[4][5]

Manager career

Roșca retired in the late 1980s and started his manager career at Metalul Bocșa, subsequently managing second tier side Gloria Reșița. Roșca built at Gloria one of the best squads in the history of this club. As a reward for his work, Roșca was promoted in 1996 as the manager of CSM Reșița and at the end of the season he promoted "the Milan from Banat" in the Divizia A. After this performance, Roșca moved in the next years to Politehnica Timișoara, Minerul Motru and Corvinul Hunedoara, all second tier teams.

In 2000 he was signed as the new manager of Divizia A club Petrolul Ploiești, then in 2002 moved to Oțelul Galați. After 2002, Roșca never managed again in the top-flight, but was an active manager in the lower divisions and led from the bench, teams such as Inter Gaz București, UTA Arad, FCM Reșița, Arieșul Turda (second tier); AFC Filipeștii de Pădure, CS Blejoi or CS Hunedoara, among others (third and fourth tier).[6]

In recent years, Victor Roșca was a match observer for the Romanian Football Federation.[7]
