Career
Known as el Pato (because of his characteristic walk), Corbo played professional football in Mexico after playing for Uruguay at the 1974 World Cup. After a successful six-season spell at Monterrey where he scored 70 official goals for the club, Corbo joined Tampico F.C. for the 1980–81 Primera División season. He was an immediate success with Tampico, where he reunited with former Monterrey teammates Basilio Bacho Salazar, Jorge Garibaldi and Francisco Bertocchi. After Tampico was dissolved following the 1981–82 Primera División season, Corbo moved to Tampico-Madero for two more seasons before retiring.
