Maschio started playing at Arsenal of Lavallol to later move to Quilmes Atlético Club. He joined Racing Club in 1954, and transferred to Italy in 1957. In the European country he played at Bologna, Atalanta, Inter and Fiorentina. His performance brought him to the Italian national team to play in the 1962 FIFA World Cup. He returned to Racing in 1966 to win the Copa Libertadores and Intercontinental Cup in 1967, and to end his career with the club of Avellaneda with 44 goals in 139 matches.

Maschio also played two games for the Italian team in 1962, scoring no goals. In the 1962 World Cup played in Chile, Maschio was the captain of the Italian team and one of the protagonists of the Battle of Santiago incidents in the match against the Chilean team, in which Chilean player Leonel Sanchez broke his nose.
Antonio Angelillo, Omar Sivori and Humberto Maschio acquired the nickname "the Angels with Dirty Faces" when they moved en masse to Italy in the latter part of the 1950's. The name was given to them on account of their typically South American colour and flair. They were also known as ‘The Trio of Death’ because of their clinical finishing.
Maschio coached the Argentine national team in the first half of 1969.
