Bernd Trunzer
Bernd Trunzer (born March 16, 1947 in Markranstädt ; † March 28, 2018 ) was a German football player who was active from 1970 to 1976 in the GDR Oberliga , the top division of GDR football for BSG Chemie Leipzig .
Athletic career
With five appearances for the Army Sports Association (ASG) Vorwärts Cottbus in the second-rate GDR league , the 20-year-old Bernd Trunzer began his career in higher-class football in the 1967/68 season. In the following season he was a regular in the army team with 29 missions in 30 point games and was their top scorer with 19 goals.
After he had played fourteen of the fifteen GDR league games in the first half of the 1969/70 season, his service in the National People's Army was ended, and Trunzer joined the upper division chemistry Leipzig. By the end of the season he was used in seven league games, but was only in the starting line-up three times. 1970/71 he was initially only used in the 2nd team, with which he played five point games in the GDR league. Only in the second half of the season did Trunzer make eight league appearances, four times from the start. The first team was relegated from the league at the end of the season, and Trunzer took the opportunity to establish himself as a regular player during the GDR league season. In the 20 championship games and eight promotion games he was used 25 times and was once again the top scorer of his team with 13 goals. Chemie Leipzig managed to return to the top league immediately. Trunzer was able to defend his regular place with 20 matches and was again the chemists' best shooter with six hits. From 1973 onwards, Chemie Leipzig developed into an elevator team; it was relegated from the top league in 1974 and 1976.
Until 1976 Trunzer was part of the permanent staff, of 74 point games played, he played 64 matches and scored 21 goals. In 1976/77 he played his last season with Chemie Leipzig, in which he only played one league game in the GDR league. He then ended his career as a competitive footballer, in which he completed 79 league games with 14 goals and 93 GDR league games with 53 goals in ten seasons. A total of three times he was the team record goal scorer. Then he was until 1983 with the third-rate Leipzig district league teams Progress West and Steel Northwest trainer. When Stahl Nordwest rose to the GDR league in 1983, Trunzer played 21 league games in 1983/84 at the age of 36 and increased his goal account by another four hits.
