Club career

Product of Colo-Colo youth ranks, he won eight titles in his career with that club, being his most successful moment with the coach Claudio Borghi, when he also was named during the 2007 season at the Chilean Primera División Best Eleven. Although Riffo was born with a club foot, that complicated him very much, because he had to make several operations in his foot.[1] In the 2010 season, he abandoned the club, because the Argentine coach Diego Cagna not considered him for the next season and in January 2011, he signed for Santiago Morning.

In March 2012, he announced his retirement from professional football, because Morning was relegated to the Primera B and also Riffo was titled as football coach at the ANFP, the last season that he played.

International career

He also has represented the Chilean national team on several occasions. He played in one game during the Copa América 2007 versus Brazil in which he committed a penalty. Later in the match Riffo was injured for the tournament. Riffo played in the first four games of the 2010 FIFA World Cup qualification for Chile. Riffo started the first four games receiving a yellow card against Argentina. However, he was not recalled after the fourth match for the rest of the qualification process.[2]

gollark: Do you mean *server-side* or *client-side*/HTTP caching?
gollark: DokuWiki, which I use for my notes, apparently does page rendering fairly slowly, so it has a complex caching thing in place.
gollark: If you want that nice user login icon, you either have to:- serve your files statically, have an API, and add some JS to add the user icon- start serving all your files off a custom webserver thing which does templating or something and adds the icon
gollark: And while you *can* do it with JS and an API, you still need a backend and then people complain because JS and there are some problematic cases there.
gollark: > what's non-trivial about sending data from two sources?You have to actually have a backend instead of just a folder of static files behind nginx, which adds significant complexity.
