Club career
Patalino was born in Elvas, Portalegre District. He spent nine seasons of his 23-year senior career in the Primeira Liga, representing Sport Lisboa e Elvas, O Elvas C.A.D. (created following a merger between SL Elvas and another club in the region, Sporting Clube Elvense, farm teams of S.L. Benfica and Sporting CP respectively) and Lusitano G.C. and amassing totals of 188 matches and 121 goals.[1]
In the 1947–48 Primeira Divisão, Patalino scored 24 times for O Elvas who finished eighth. Highlights included four goals in a 12–1 win against already-relegated Académica de Coimbra, and a brace in the 2–1 away victory over Benfica.[2][1]
International career
Patalino earned three caps for the Portugal national team in two years, scoring on his debut in a 3–2 win over Wales on 15 May 1949; his fellow debutant José Mota also found the net in that match. All of his appearances were in friendlies.[3][4][5][1]
