Emérico Hirschl , also Emérico Hirsch or Imre Hirschl , (born June 11, 1900 in Apostag , † September 1973 in Buenos Aires , Argentina ) was a Hungarian football player and coach .

Career

It is often stated that Hirschl was active as a player for Ferencváros Budapest . You also hear that he is said to have played in Yugoslavia, Austria and France. In fact, he cannot be proven to be of any importance as a player at any club. The Budapest Húsos FC (second division side in the 1920s season, including forced relegation due to bribery at that time) is the only club that should have him in their records. From his daughter Gabriela, a psychoanalyst in Buenos Aires (there is hardly any more typical bonarensic, in the world capital of psychoanalysis), one heard that as a minor he took part in battles on the side of the British during World War I and then on the side of the Zionists in Palestine, that left scars on the hip and wrist. She also reports that, from what she knows, he comes from a wealthy family and also played football in Czechoslovakia . Otherwise she knows little about her father's past.

In 1929, the year in which Ferencvaros also went on tour to South America, he is said to have sought a visa to New York in Paris and happened to meet the president of Palmeiras, Eduardo Matarazzo, one of the richest Brazilians and from 1928 to 1931 president of Palestra Italia, later called SE Palmeiras , met in São Paulo, who is said to have promised him a commitment to his club in São Paulo. He is said to have worked there in the same year as an assistant coach and also as head coach for two games.

In connection with Ferencvaros' South America tour in Brazil in 1929, he reappears: it is a fact that he successfully met the New York Hakoah All-Stars ( see also New York Hakoah ) around Béla Guttmann , who was traveling to South America in São Paulo in mid-1930 later referred to him as the “Budapest butcher”, said to have served as a masseur. So he toured Argentina with them, but according to Guttmann, the All Stars ran out of money for his payment.

Hirschl then praised himself at the clubs in Buenos Aires as the ex-trainer of Hakoah and is said to finally get the trainer job at Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata in 1932 . With the GELP team, he lost the first three games and won only three in the first half of the season, but they earned the nickname El Expreso Platense in this era and finished seventh at the end of the season, ten points behind the champions, which was considered a great success . He got the nickname el Mago ("the magician"). In 1933 GELP played for the championship for a long time, but two highly controversial referee decisions in the closing stages of the season in games against Boca Juniors and San Lorenzo put an end to hopes. GELP finished sixth, but this time only four points behind the champions San Lorenzo. The team scored 90 goals, more than any other. During his time at GELP, Hirschl introduced some players, some of them against the ideas of the club's management, who should have a sustainable reputation in the club's history. Among them Arturo Naón , GELP's record goal scorer.

At the beginning of 1935 he took over the coaching position at the top club River Plate in Argentina . With the club from Buenos Aires he won the championship in 1936 and 1937. 1938 was replaced there by Renato Cesarini . In 1939 he occupied the coaching position at Rosario Central .

From 1940 until the end of the Brazilian tour he was with GELP until February 1942. He was then at the Bonaren suburb CA Banfield and in 1944 again at CA San Lorenzo trainer. There, however, the sports court overtook him in December 1943. A Banfield game was postponed and Hirschl was one of ten who were related and banned. As a result, it was no longer in demand in Argentina.

At the end of August 1944, the Brazilian Conselho Nacional de Desportos gave permission for Hirschl to coach the EC Cruzeiro in Porto Alegre . He took up the position there in early 1945 and stayed with Cruzeiro until his resignation in June 1946. He had to buy himself out of his current contract with 75,000 Cruzeiros when he decided in mid-1946 to train the first division club CD Marte in Mexico City , where he signed for two seasons. His successor at EC Cruzeiro was Telemaco Frazäo de Lima , historically a veteran of Grêmio FBPA , where he was even president in 1940.

On March 29, 1949, he signed a contract with CA Peñarol in the Uruguayan capital, Montevideo . He started working there on May 8th of that year. It is reported that he conducted the first training session in front of 1,500 spectators with the entire 40-plus squad of teams from the top three leagues. Then Hirschl, who was led in Uruguay under the name Emérico Hirsch , trained the Montevideans at least until 1951. Hirschl, who played the World Cup system with Peñarol like his predecessor Randolf Galodway , won the Uruguayan with the team in 1949 and 1951 Championship. According to Luciano Álvarez, his coaching position even lasted until 1953. In 1955, he briefly returned to the Aurinegros for an ultimately unsuccessful engagement, according to Álvarez . Partly the year 1956 is used for this second station with the Montevideans. At least in January 1961 he was again in charge of River Plate from Buenos Aires.
