Career
Marino started his career with Newell's Old Boys in 2000, he helped the team to win the Apertura 2004. He then endured a six-month contract dispute with the club, he did not play for them again.
In 2005, he signed for Boca Juniors, he has suffered a number of injuries and has often been left out of the team, but he has helped the club to win five major titles.
In July 2007, he signed with Tigres UANL. After his spell in the Mexican side, he came back to Boca Juniors, where he was used mainly as a substitute for Juan Román Riquelme.
In 2010, after six months of being released from Boca Juniors and inactivity due to injuries, Marino signed a 3-year contract with Universidad de Chile. In his first season with the club, he struggled to obtain a spot in the main squad, mainly because of poor form. However, with the arrival of Jorge Sampaoli (who, at first, told him that he wasn't on his plans for the 2011 season) Marino began to improve his form and weight, and was one of the key players that helped the team to win the Apertura 2011.
In 2015, he joined to Atlético de Rafaela.[1]
He claimed that he was once abducted by aliens.
