Football career

Pascual was born in Bilbao, Biscay. During his career, spent almost exclusively in the lower leagues, he represented CD Basconia (Athletic Bilbao's third team), Arenas Club de Getxo, CA Osasuna B, Amurrio Club, Racing de Santander – no competitive appearances for the La Liga club, playing exclusively for the B-team – Real Oviedo, Barakaldo CF and Gimnàstic de Tarragona.[1]

Pascual made his debut at the professional level on 14 June 2009, one month shy of his 28th birthday, keeping a clean sheet for Gimnàstic in a 2–0 home win against Elche CF for the Segunda División championship.[2] He appeared in only two more matches in that level during his career, also with the Catalans.

In 2012, after two years without a club, Pascual moved to Argentina, going on to spend several seasons in the country's lower divisions.
