Juan Domingo Rocchia is a retired professional footballer. He played for Racing Club and Ferro Carril Oeste in the Argentine Primera.

He played in central defence and he formed a famous partnership with Héctor Cúper in his time at Ferro Carril Oeste. He played 377 games for Ferro, putting him 6th on their all time appearances list.

His nickname was "Burro" (Donkey), he was a famously combative player and a great header of the ball. He was also very good at taking free kicks and he scored 78 goals in his career (very impressive for a defender). He is Ferro Carril Oeste's 4th highest goalscorer of all time.

Roccia played for the Argentina national football team in 1975 under the managership of César Luis Menotti. [ [http://www.rsssf.com/players/arg-players-6498.html rsssf: Argentina international footballers] ]

In 1982 he was an integral part of the Ferro Carril Oeste team that became only the second team after San Lorenzo to win the Primera without losing a single game.

In 1981 he helped goalkeeper Carlos Barisio set an Argentine record of 1,075 minutes without conceding a goal.
