career

Alfred Kohlhäufl grew up in a football-loving family with numerous brothers, including the musician Josef Kohlhäufl and the art teacher Richard Kohlhäufl , in the Oberwalting district of the Leiblfing community .

As an A-youth at SpVgg Plattling , he received early support and was a defensive player in the German youth national team in 1965 . In April he played in the DFB selection, which finished fifth in the UEFA youth tournament after beating Hungary 2-1. He played in the middle of the tournament. Participants were Norbert Nigbur , Egon Köhnen , Berti Vogts , David Scheu , Heiner Schmieh , Walter Bechtold , Ludwig Bründl and Karl-Heinz Kamp . Kohlhäufl was in the championship squad of TSV 1860 Munich in 1965/66 , but was not used in any season game.

After his year with the Munich “Löwen”, he took a step back and played three rounds in the then second -rate regional soccer league south . In the 1966/67 season at 1. FC Pforzheim where he made 25 games with one goal. The club was relegated last at the end of the season. From 1967 to 1969 he played 59 games with three goals at SSV Jahn Regensburg . At Jahn, Kohlhäufl made the 1968/69 season - Regensburg took fifth place under coach Aki Schmidt and teammates Gyula Tóth , Gerhard Faltermeier , Willibald Mikulasch and Manfred Ritschel - with his performances the Bundesliga club Borussia Dortmund noticed and switched to Round 1969/70 to Westphalia to BVB.

Under coach Hermann Lindemann Kohlhäufl completed 22 Bundesliga games and scored one goal. Dortmund finished fifth with the players Jürgen Rynio , Ferdinand Heidkamp , Rudi Assauer , Reinhold Wosab , Willi Neuberger , Sigfried Held and Werner Weist . The participation in the 9: 1 Bundesliga record victory of the Berlin Hertha in the Olympic Stadium on the third last match day was also remembered .

In the summer of 1970 the second engagement followed with Jahn Regensburg in the Regionalliga Süd. In the Upper Palatinate, he acted from the back rows as a playmaker and scored 35 goals in 101 regional league appearances in three rounds with his free kicks and long shots. After four games for Regensburg in the last season of the second-rate regional league era, 1973/74 , he was called again by TSV 1860 Munich.

With the “Löwen” under coach Rudi Gutendorf, he came third behind FC Augsburg and 1. FC Nürnberg. For the team from Giesing he scored ten goals in 25 games alongside teammates Ferdinand Keller , Walter Sohnle , Georg Metzger , Karl-Heinz Mrosko and Wolfgang Gayer . When the Löwen received FC Augsburg with Helmut Haller , returning from Italy, for their home game in the completely overcrowded Olympic Stadium (over 80,000 spectators) on August 15, 1973 , Kohlhäufl was still playing for Regensburg. He spent the first three rounds of the newly installed 2nd Bundesliga , 1974/75 to 1976/77, with the former Bundesliga club, before he and his teammates played the qualifying game for the third after the 1976/77 runner-up behind VfB Stuttgart BL-climber qualified against the north runner-up Arminia Bielefeld . Teammates in this round were goalkeepers Bernhard Hartmann , William Hartwig , Ahmet Glavović , Hans Haunstein , Anton Nachreiner and Georg Metzger.

Kohlhäufl and colleagues were trained by Heinz Lucas . After three games - 0: 4; 4: 0; 2-0 - Kohlhäufl was promoted to the Bundesliga in 1860. In the three rounds of the 2nd Bundesliga, he scored eleven goals in 104 games. He played in the Bundesliga for another year in 1977/78 and scored four goals in 30 games. The first game played in 1860 Munich on August 6, 1977 with a home game against FC Schalke 04. In the 0-0 draw, the defense formed with Hartmann in goal, Glavovic as cleaner, Kohlhäufl as pre-stopper and the two full-backs Hartwig and Wilhelm Bierofka . On matchday 15 he overcame Bayern goalkeeper legend Sepp Maier in an unforgettable 3-1 derby win with a 35-meter shot . That was the first win of the season after 11 defeats and three draws. This game stuck in the memory of many because Karl-Heinz Rummenigge fapped off Beppo Hofeditz there in 1860s after he yelled at him with “you red Bavarian pig”. On the 34th matchday, April 29, 1978, 1860 Munich said goodbye with a 2-0 home win in front of another 7,000 spectators in the Munich Olympic Stadium against the friendly relegated team from 1. FC Saarbrücken from the Bundesliga.

After relegation with the "Lions" he immediately belonged to the championship team from 1860 in 1978/79 and scored six goals in 35 games when he returned to the Bundesliga. From December 24, 1978 Eckhard Krautzun had replaced the former coach Lucas. Rudi Sturz was new to the defense and Franz Gerber lived up to his reputation as a goalscorer alongside Erhard Hofeditz . The Löwen lost the opening game on July 29, 1978 in the Olympic Stadium with 1: 3 goals against SpVgg Bayreuth, led by Wolfgang Breuer and Manfred Großler . On the 38th matchday, June 9, 1979, 40,000 spectators celebrated the championship and the Bundesliga return from 1860 Munich after the 3-1 home win against 1. FC Saarbrücken. But then the captain ended his higher-class career, the sports teacher went to the amateur camp and returned to Lower Bavaria.

In the Löwen book by Grüne and Melchior it is noted about Kohlhäufl, “that he was of central importance as a pre-stopper for Heinz Lucas' team and after that the lions would never have had a player like Kohlhäufl who could hit the ball with such elementary force He would have been extremely popular with the fans, not only because they appreciated his sporting achievements, but because they knew that someone with an exemplary attitude and great humility always gave his best.

From 1979 Kohlhäufl worked as a player-coach for five years at the Lower Bavarian TSV 1861 Straubing, with whom he rose in 1980 from the district league to the state league and from there in 1982 to the amateur league, as the third-class Bayern league was then called. After 7th place in 1983 it was the last to go down in 1984 and Kohlhäufl said goodbye. In the 1989/90 and 1990/91 seasons he was also partially the coach of Straubinger, who was now playing in the regional league. 2000 returned but rose at the end of the season from the regional league to the district league . 2001/02 the decline continued and it was followed by relegation to the district league. During the current season he was replaced by Manfred Reumann, a veteran of the Straubing family.
