Athletic career

Local career

Armin Romstedt was a winger and played for BSG Traktor Frankendorf and BSG Motor Weimar in his youth . In the 1978/79 season he came to FC Rot-Weiß Erfurt at the age of 22 after Romstedt had drawn attention to himself with 13 goals in the league for Weimar . In the last six matches of this league season he was used at FC Rot-Weiß and scored his first goal in the top division of the GDR in his third appearance against Dynamo Dresden . In total, he played 287 league games for Erfurt and scored 62 goals.

Although he regularly excelled as a goal scorer alongside Jürgen Heun as a striker , he did not hit double figures in any of his 13 league seasons. The best value of the master of socialist industry comes from the last season of the former GDR championship with 9 goals, which has already been renamed the NOFV Oberliga. In the 1980 FDGB Cup final against FC Carl Zeiss Jena , Romstedt scored the 1-0 for Erfurt. It was only shortly before the end of the regular season that the Jenaers could equalize through Jürgen Raab and finally won 3-1 after extra time.

At the end of his career he was also active three times with the Thuringians in the UEFA Cup and played 17 times (1 goal) in the 2nd Bundesliga in the 1991/92 season . After three years with SC 1903 Weimar , Armin Romstedt returned to his old club in Erfurt in 1996. For the second team of FC Rot-Weiß Erfurt, he played one more season in the Thuringia League at the age of 40 and even scored ten goals there. Then he let his active career with his youth club SV Fortuna Frankendorf in the district league as a player-coach finally come to an end.

Selection bets

On September 12, 1984, Armin Romstedt played his only international match for the GDR national soccer team against Greece in Zwickau . The Erfurt striker achieved this mission mainly because the senior national team played two games that day. While the more powerful team competed in England with coach Bernd Stange , Romstedt played in an eleven studded with a few debutants, coached by Stange's assistant Harald Irmscher , in the Georgi-Dimitrov-Stadion against the Greeks. With his goal to make it 1-0 in the 23rd minute, Torsten Gütschow ensured the victory of the connecting squad in a test game in which Romstedt came on for Christian Backs 22 minutes before the end .

In the 1982/83 season, the Erfurt striker had participated in two test games of the GDR Olympic selection . In the qualifying matches for the Olympic Games 1984 he was not used.

Further career

After the end of his active career, Armin Romstedt ran a sports shop in Erfurt . He also worked as a trainer at SC 1903 Weimar from December 2005 to September 2008 .
