Club career

Born in Manresa, Barcelona, Catalonia, Epitié spent the vast majority of his senior career in Spain, but never appeared in higher than the third division.

He represented CE Manresa, FC Andorra, CD La Oliva,[2] ACD San Marcial, CD Logroñés, Jerez Industrial CF, Algeciras CF, AD Mar Menor-San Javier, CF Peralada, UD Poblense,[3][4][5] CD Binéfar, CF Vilanova (sharing teams with sibling Juan in the latter), CD Montcada, CF Igualada, UE Rubí, CE Europa[6] and UE Castelldefels.

International career

As many players born in Spain, Epitié chose to represent Equatorial Guinea through ancestry – his father hailed from that country, while his mother was Spanish. He made his senior debut in 2006.

Personal life

Epitié's older brother, Juan, was also a footballer – and a forward. He too spent most of his professional career in Spain, and also appeared for Equatorial Guinea internationally.[7]

gollark: I'm not really sure why you would want them except as historical curiosity.
gollark: It wasn't cool. It was very hot, so much so that Intel tried to make some new board standard to improve cooling.
gollark: IIRC the actual dies generally aren't actually that big, so they just pick a convenient size.
gollark: I believe Micron is offering stuff based on the same technology, and there's a bunch of other nonvolatile storage things being worked on.
