Career
Serjio (later Sergio) hailed from Scotland. John Livingstone Eves, a retired Chilean footballer who competed for Santiago National, was a pioneer of the sport, and Ana Pohlhammer Caamao, a mother of Santiago Nazul, died when Sergio was 11 years old. Livingstone first joined Unión Espaola in 1936, after Luis Tirado watched him play a match between St. Ignatius College, where he was studying, and the English Institute of Santiago. He left football for law at Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile. He soon became familiar with the university's football team, and from 1938, he began to establish himself as the goalkeeper of CD Universidad Católica.
He made his debut in the national team at the 1941 South American Championship in Chile, winning 5–0 over Ecuador. Chile finished third in the tournament, and Livingstone was voted the tournament's best player by the end of the tournament. Livingstone played in 56 games for Chile between 1941 and 1954, his highest international record until 1962, and he was in five more South American Championships, totaling 34 matches. He appeared in the FIFA World Cup 1950 in Brazil, where Chile was forced to withdraw after the first group phase.
He played 30 matches for Racing Club in Argentina during 1943. He came to Argentina for sentimental reasons and rejoined Católica in 1944, winning the national championships of 1949 and 1954. Following the second title, the club had the misfortune to be relegated in the season immediately after, but it was able to return to the first division quickly. He went back to Universidad Católica, where he began his career in 1959 after a brief stint on loan with Colo-Colo in 1957. Following his football career, he became a well-known sports journalist and television presenter with Televisión Nacional de Chile, where he remained until his death (more than 60 years).
