Playing career

Born in Lugo, Galicia, Tartilán was a SD Ponferradina youth graduate, and made his senior debuts in 1960. In the following year he moved to Real Betis in La Liga, but failed to appear in any official matches for the club, being also loaned to Cultural y Deportiva Leonesa in 1962.

In 1963 Tartilán moved to Segunda División with Cádiz CF. He made his professional debut on 23 February 1964, starting in a 1–2 away loss against CA Ceuta; it was his maiden appearance for the club.

In the 1964 summer Tartilán joined RCD Espanyol, and made his top level debut on 7 February 1965, playing the full 90 minutes in a 4–2 home win against Real Zaragoza. He left the Pericos in June, and subsequently represented CE L'Hospitalet, Ponferradina, UD Melilla and Cleveland Stokers, retiring with the latter in 1969.[1]

Post-playing career

Tartilán started his managerial career at UD Cabecense in 1978, and was also at the helm of Cultural Leonesa in the following year. With the latter he remained three seasons in Segunda División B, being sacked in 1982.

Tartilán was subsequently manager of SD Ponferradina in seven occasions, only split by a spell at CD Numancia in 1991.[2][3][4]
