Biography

He won an Olympic gold medal at the 1960 Summer Olympics in Rome, Italy with Yugoslavia. They topped their pool consisting of Bulgaria, United Arab Republic and Turkey before beating Italy in the semi-finals and crowning themselves champions after beating Denmark 3-1 in the final. At the tournament, Šoškić only conceded six goals against him.

After retiring, he embarked on a coaching career. He was a long-time assistant in FK Partizan and was also the head coach of OFK Kikinda in the 1970s.

In 1993, the USA national team head coach Bora Milutinović brought him into his staff to be the goalkeepers coach. Šoškić remained even after Milutinović left in 1995, continuing to work with the team under head coaches Steve Sampson and later Bruce Arena.[2] He left the team along with Arena after the 2006 FIFA World Cup.
