Martin Cohen (born 3 February 1952) is a South African former professional association footballer who played for the Los Angeles Aztecs.

Playing career

Cohen was born in Johannesburg, South Africa, and is Jewish.[1][2][3] He was a starter for Highlands Park during the apartheid era of soccer in South Africa. He had trained with this club since the age of 10.[4] On 20 April 1974, Cohen was part of the White XI that played their black counterparts in a racially charged match at Rand Stadium. After initially going down 1-0 to the black side (the goal was called off-side by referee Wally Turner), Cohen scored a crucial goal before Neil Roberts put the game away.[5]

In 1975, Cohen won the South Africa's player of the year.[6]

In December 1976 he signed with the Los Angeles Aztecs.[4] He scored his first two goals in the first leg of the second round of the NASL playoffs against the Dallas Tornado as the Aztecs won 3-1.[7] He played with the California Surf in 1979.[8]

His son, Larry Cohen, is also a footballer.
