Career

societies

Massini, son and first child of trade unionist and SPD - Reichstag Albert Massini was interested as a clerk at very passionate sport and played cricket and football.

He belonged to the BFC Preussen from 1908 to 1914 and played in the Association of Berlin Ball Game Clubs until 1911 , then in the Berlin Championship held by the Association of Brandenburg Ball Game Clubs .

He won this with BFC Prussia at the end of his second season for the club and on April 21, 1912 as the winner of Group B after the second final game, won 2-1 against the winner of Group A , the Berlin TuFC Viktoria . At the final round of the German soccer championship in 1910 and 1912 - each failed by Holstein Kiel - Massini did not play alongside Rudolf Droz , Edwin Dutton , Walter Sorkale , Otto Thiel and Gustav Unfried .

National team

The defender of BFC Preussen completed his only international match on March 13, 1909 against the national team of England . The game played in Oxford , to which he was only invited by national players due to many rejections - especially the then stars from Karlsruhe from the KFV and Phoenix - was lost 9-0. Otto Hantschick from Union 92 was also used in defense . The after-effects of the seasickness caused by a stormy crossing from Calais to Dover with a decrepit ferry ship were, in connection with the clear footballing superiority of the English amateurs, the main reasons for the clear defeat.

Three weeks before his international debut, on February 21, 1909, Massini formed the defender pair with Hantschick in the competition for the crown prince's cup at the semi-final match in Hamburg in the ranks of the Berlin selection against northern Germany. The Berlin selection won 4-1 and moved into the final on April 18, 1909 against Central Germany; Massini was not used there.
