Life

Immediately after the sobering opening defeat for the 1945/46 season on August 19, 1945 (3:10 against Atlante ), the management of the newly recorded CD Tampico in the Mexican professional league reacted by signing new players, most of whom came from Argentina. One of them was Felipe Raúl Altube, who scored his first two goals on October 14, 1945 in the 3-5 defeat at CD Oro and who scored his second brace in the next game (3-2 against San Sebastián de León ) on 21 October succeeded. Two goals in one game were not uncommon for the goal-scoring Argentine.

His first "three" in Mexico he succeeded on February 7, 1946 in an away game at Atlante; The club that, due to the humiliation of the Tampiqueños at the beginning of the season, was perhaps responsible for Altube playing in the land of the Aztecs at all . The encounter with the Potros was also a duel against the Mexican superstar Horacio Casarín , who also scored three goals in this game. After Altube had ensured the 3-1 break lead of his team, Casarín kept the Atlantistas in the game with his hits and was able to equalize 3: 3 in the 70th minute. "Matchwinner" for Atlante was then Uruguayan Roberto Scarone , who made the final score of 4: 3 with a penalty in the 90th minute.

At the end of the season on June 16, 1946, Altube even scored four goals in a home game against Club América (5-3), with which he increased the number of his hits to 27 this season.

The 1947/48 season was even more successful for him , which he completed with 30 goals and thus was the second best scorer of the season behind Adalberto López from Master León . His most successful games of the season were the 5-0 over Guadalajara on February 15, 1948, in which him (through his goals to 3-0, 4-0 and 5-0 between the 77th and 83rd minute) within only six minutes a flawless hat trick succeeded, as well as the 4: 3 over Moctezuma on March 7, 1948, to which he contributed all the hits of his team.

Before the 1948/49 season he moved to the capital club Asturias , for which he was probably active until its withdrawal from the professional league at the end of the 1949/50 season. He then returned to Tampico and was in the 1950/51 season with five goals top scorer of the Mexican Cup .
