Luis Iribarren Cavanilles (19 February 1902 – 4 May 1984) was a Spanish football player and manager who managed the Spain national team in four matches between 1953 and 1954.[1][2]

Iribarren's first match in charge was a friendly against Sweden, which ended in a 2–2 draw. Iribarren then oversaw Spain's 1954 FIFA World Cup qualification matches against Turkey. Spain won the first leg of the tie 4–1 in Madrid on 6 January 1954, but lost the return match 1–0 in Istanbul on 14 March 1954. As goal difference had not yet been introduced by FIFA, a play-off match was required, which took place at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome on 17 March 1954. The match ended in a 2–2 draw, with Turkey advancing after lots were drawn.[3][4][5]

Iribarren was a qualified dentist and the younger brother of the notable civil engineer, Ramón Iribarren.[6][7][8][9]
