Player career

societies

Fiedler learned to play football at Lichtenrader BC 25 in Berlin before moving to the Hertha BSC youth division in 1990 . There he began his career in the amateur team of Hertha BSC and came in the 1993 DFB Cup with his team up to the final against Bayer 04 Leverkusen , which his team lost 1-0. For the 1994/95 season, the goalkeeper prevailed in the professional team of Hertha BSC and became a regular goalkeeper. Because of his involvement in the promotion to the Bundesliga in the 1996/97 season and his loyalty to Hertha, the goalkeeper is very popular with the fans. Due to his height of 180 cm for a goalkeeper, he was always called “too short”. After the promotion, the Herthaners only reached two points in the first seven games and Fiedler came under criticism. Finally he had to slip into the second link and was ousted by Gábor Király .

Fiedler made his Bundesliga debut on August 3, 1997 against Borussia Dortmund . Until the 2001/02 season, the goalkeeper was only a reservist. But when Király was injured on November 4, 2001 in a game against Borussia Mönchengladbach , Fiedler again guarded the Herthan goal for ten subsequent games. Finally he had to take a seat on the exchange bench again. During the winter break of 2003/04, new coach Hans Meyer decided to make a change in the Berlin goal and made Fiedler number one again. Fiedler did not give this up again until the end of the 2006/07 season. It was only with the new signing of Jaroslav Drobný in the summer of 2007 that the original Berliner was offered a new competitor. After that, Fiedler remained number 2 and did not come to any further league use. In August 2008, Fiedler suffered a torn cruciate ligament in his knee in a friendly against Newcastle United, which meant the end of his career after an unsuccessful rehab.

National team

With the U-16 national team , he took part in the European Championship held in Switzerland from May 8 to 18, 1991 , and finished the tournament with her in second place after the final was lost 2-0 to the Spanish team.

Between 1995 and 1998 he played 16 international matches in the U-21 national team , for the first time on March 28, 1995 in Rustavi in a 2-0 win against Georgia in the qualifying for the 1996 European Championship , and for the last time on March 24, 1998 in Beirut in a 7-0 win over Lebanon's senior team .

After the playing career

After the 2008/09 season, Christian Fiedler ended his career and moved to the Hertha BSC coaching staff as a goalkeeping coach . On May 22, 2013 Hertha BSC gave him a notice of termination, despite the current contract, against which Fiedler appealed. Before the labor court in Berlin he was awarded a severance payment of 579,000 euros.

Between November 2013 and May 2015, Fiedler was employed by the DFB and trained as a goalkeeper coach for the U-17 national team . Since June 2015 he has been the goalkeeping coach at SpVgg Greuther Fürth .
