Career

societies

Leitner joined a football club relatively late at the age of 18; integration in a boys' team at the age of six had been rejected by the Salzburg Football Association . Originally playing as a striker for 1. Halleiner SK , from the town of the same name in the state of Salzburg , she was placed in the gate as an "emergency solution" after the goalkeeper left and knew how to convince.

In 1999 she moved to the Salzburg national division USK Hof , with whom she qualified for the 2nd division middle for the 2000/01 season - due to the league reform - and finished in second place. In the following three seasons, she completed this with the team in seventh place.

For the 2004/05 season she signed the Bundesliga club FC Bayern Munich ; This was preceded by a trial training session in 2004 after her compatriot Sonja Spieler recommended her to coach Sissy Raith .

By the end of her career at the end of the 2008/09 season, she played 46 games for Bayern , including 13 (of 68) in the Bundesliga, 23 in the Bayernliga, eight in the Regionalliga Süd for the second team, and two friendlies in 2004 (3-1 against Princeton University ; on April 15 and 15: 0 against FV Faurndau ; on August 8). She made her Bundesliga debut on May 22, 2005 (22nd matchday) in a 6-0 win at home against SG Essen-Schönebeck when she came on for Ulrike Schmetz in the 57th minute . Their last game for FC Bayern Munich was the Bundesliga match with SC Freiburg, which they won 5-1 in the Möslestadion on April 18, 2009 (18th matchday) .

National team

On April 21, 2001 Leitner made his debut in the senior national team , which played 1-1 against Hungary's selection in Weiz ; she had to accept her first goal after eight minutes. From March 4th to 11th, 2009 she was a member of the national team that first took part in the tournament for the Algarve Cup and finished it as tenth of twelve participants. After being used in all three group matches, she played her last international match with the game for 9th place , which was lost to Norway's 2-0 selection .
