career

Dieter Blümchen opened his short career in the contract league of Berlin with his appearance on the first day of the 1957/58 season, on September 1, 1957, in a 2-2 home draw against Alemannia 90 Berlin. He made his debut with fourth place in the table last year, Viktoria 89, with two goals on his debut. At the side of veterans Helmut Jonas , Werner Nocht and Richard Strehlow , the new center forward got off to an excellent start. After the eighth game day Viktoria 89 was in first place in the city league with 14: 2 points. The goal- scoring attacker distinguished himself as a triple goalscorer in the matches against Berliner SV 92 (four goals), Hertha Zehlendorf and Alemannia 90. Ironically in the decisive and final championship game - March 22, 1958 - against the pursuers Tennis Borussia Berlin , he did not hit the opposing goal and the "Veilchen" won the Berlin championship with a 2-0 victory , one point ahead of Viktoria 89. Blümchen was runner-up in his first round in the city league and won the top scorer's crown with 19 goals. Reinhard Knöfel with 18 and Horst Schmutzler with 16 goals followed in the places. Blümchen had completed 20 games for the runner-up.

In the first half of the 1958/59 season, the student only appeared sporadically and only completed four games for Viktoria 89. With his use on November 30, 1958 in the 2-2 home draw against Wacker 04 Berlin , he ended his activity for Viktoria and moved to Freiburg as a result of his studies and joined Freiburg FC in the 2nd League South for the 1959/60 season . Under the coaching team Woldemar Gerschler and Hans Büchner - from the second half of the season Günter Brust was the coach in the Möslestadion - the round was not successful. The FFC came in 11th place and thus had no chance to play the promotion places to the football Oberliga Süd . Blümchen belonged to the team around veteran Siegfried Geesmann and the young talent Werner Breithaupt , but only played football as a hobby and then ended his high-class career.
