Life

As a child, Ernst Liebrich played football in the streets of Kaiserslautern. The Walter brothers Fritz , Ottmar and Ludwig played in the so-called "Kanälchersmannschaft" . Liebrich started playing club football at the age of 10 in 1932 at SC Kaiserslautern. When his father, the plasterer and plasterer Ernst Karl Liebrich (1901–1969), was imprisoned in 1933 for his activities with the KPD , Ernst Liebrich jr. left the club and later joined the Olympia Kaiserslautern club.

From 1938 to 1941 he played in the youth team of the FCK and in the spring of 1941 he played his first matches for the first team. Ernst Liebrich played in the 1st team of 1. FC Kaiserslautern until 1955, interrupted by a draft as a marine in World War II and subsequent American captivity, from which he was released in November 1945 and returned to the Palatinate. He was German champion with the FCK in 1951 and 1953 .

Liebrich was also called "(great) driver". His younger brother Werner ("little driver") also played for 1. FC Kaiserslautern and became world champion in 1954 .

Like his teammate Werner Baßler , Liebrich was employed by the sewing machine manufacturer Pfaff . Here he initially completed an apprenticeship as a mechanic from 1938 to 1942 and later worked in the company as a technical draftsman until his retirement.
