Moreno made history in 1994 when he signed with Middlesbrough FC. Moreno started in Middlesbrough's first ever game in the new Riverside Stadium in a Friendly against Italian side Sampdoria. He then went on to spend two years there, mostly coming off the bench. In 1996, in the middle of the MLS season, he was signed by the league and allocated to DC, and helped lead them to the MLS Cup. He was arguably the league's best player in 1997, when he lead the league in goals (16), was named to the MLS Best XI and won another MLS Cup for his side (he would add a third Cup and another Best XI in 1999). After the 1997 season, he spent a few games on loan back to Middlesbrough. Year 1994 (MCMXCIV) was a common year starting on Saturday (link will display full 1994 Gregorian calendar). ...

1998 was Moreno's best season, as he scored 16 goals and added 11 assists, only losing the MLS MVP Award to teammate and fellow Bolivian Marco Etcheverry. He continued to play well amid constant concerns about his weight, but injuries began to take toll in 2001. He would go on to miss a large chunk of the 2002 season and a conflict with head coach Ray Hudson led to Moreno being traded to the MetroStars after that season.

Moreno missed most of his one season with the New Jersey-based club, but did score two goals, one against DC. He was shipped back to United before the 2004 season and, undertaking a strict training regimen to avoid injuries, regained much of his old form. He was a finalist for MLS MVP, was named to the league's Best XI for the second time, and led DC to their fourth MLS Cup. He was named to another Best XI in 2005. He was named to the MLS All-Time Best XI after the 2005 season. In 2007, he scored his 108th goal on a penalty kick against Toronto FC on May 19, tying him with Jason Kreis as the all-time leading scorer in MLS.[1] Year 2004 (MMIV) was a leap year starting on Thursday of the Gregorian calendar. ...

Moreno was a regular on the Bolivian national team for most of the 1990s and played in the 1994 FIFA World Cup and the Copa América 1997, but had been ignored for six years until recalled in 2007 for a friendly with Ireland and then Copa América, where he scored his tenth international goal in the 39th minute of Bolivia's opening game against the host nation of Venezuela.[1][2] He also scored a beautiful goal in the 24th Minute against Peru, though it wasn't enough for Bolivia to advance from the group stage. He has one son, James Moreno.
