Horacio Federico Troche Herrera (4 February 1935 – 14 July 2014) was a Uruguayan footballer.
Born in Nueva Helvecia, Troche began playing football with local side Nacional de Nueva Helvecia as a central defender. Later, he would play for Club Nacional de Football and C.A. Cerro.
Troche moved abroad to play for Club Atlético Huracán in 1963 and again for one season in the Bundesliga for Alemannia Aachen in 1967.
Troche played 28 times for the Uruguayan national team between 1959 and 1966, and featured at the 1962 World Cup in Chile and at the 1966 World Cup in England. Troche became noted when he, during the quarter final match against West Germany, came in a brawl with Uwe Seeler and boxed him on the ear. Uruguay lost the match with 0:4.
After he retired from playing, Troche became a manager leading Mexican Primera División sides C.D. Guadalajara and Club de Fútbol Laguna.
