Marco Antonio Ruiz began his career as a professional footballer immediately after the 1986 FIFA World Cup in his own country at his home club Tampico-Madero FC , for which he worked for four years. In the summer of 1990 he moved to the Tigres de la UANL , where he spent most of his active career and in whose ranks he also ended his active career in 2004. In between he spent a season (1992/93) for Gallos Blancos Querétaro and three and a half years (mid-1998 to late 2001) for Chivas Guadalajara .

In the period between September 20, 2000 (2-0 against Ecuador) and June 20, 2001 (1: 3 against Honduras), Ruiz completed a total of 16 international appearances for the Mexican national team , in which he (right in the first game to 2-0 Final score) a hit succeeded. His national team career was only connected to the national coach Enrique Meza , who brought him into the team and under whom he was a regular of "El Tri". When Meza was fired due to negative results in World Cup qualifying for 2002 , Ruiz's national team career was over.
