However, footballers are also human beings, and as such, they can also suffer from issues that can lead them to take tragic decisions.

 

Raimundo Tupper was a Chilean footballer. He was an excellent player who spent his entire career in the Chilean team Universidad Católica. You can make your best bet on 1xBet Nigeria, which also offers opportunities to wager on Chilean football.

A highly disciplined player

Tupper played professionally between 1985 and 1995. In the youth teams of Universidad Católica, he already showed maturity and discipline. So much so that he had his first-team debut when he was only 16 years old. Live wagers on Universidad Católica and other teams from Chile can be made from the 1xbet.ng/en/live website.

 

Despite being primarily a full-back, Tupper never got a red card during his career. But not only he was a correct and well-liked player. He was also a versatile player who played as:

 

● a winger;

● a right or left midfielder;

● and even as a central midfielder;

 

The 1xBet platform can be used to wager on players that perform all those functions in a match. Thanks to this versatility, the player was also part of the Chilean national team for a few years.

Personal issues

From the outside, Tupper looked like a positive and friendly person. That’s why he was liked not only by fans from Universidad Católica but also by fans from other teams who had big respect for him. Punters can also find virtual sports on 1xbet.ng/en/virtualsports, which can be exciting counterparts to real-world football.

 

Yet, there was a darker side hidden behind that positive image. In 1994 and 1995 Tupper missed many matches. Everybody at Universidad Católica was quick to state that this was due to injuries and that he soon would be in good condition to return. Injuries can also happen in virtual sports, and users can find and wager on them on the 1xBet website.

 

In reality, he was fighting severe depression. In July 1995, his team traveled to Costa Rica for a series of friendly matches. He was not fit to play, yet, he still traveled with the squad in order to support and spend time with his friends and teammates.

 

On the 20th of July 1995, Raimundo Tupper decided to end his life in the hotel where his team was staying. Not only Universidad Católica, but the entire Chilean football community was devastated by the news. But he left a powerful legacy. In fact, up until today, the Chilean football federation gives the “Raimundo Tupper award” to the most correct player of each season.
