Frigyes Weicz (* unknown; † May 19, 1915 ), nicknamed Fritz, was a Hungarian football player.

Career

Weicz started playing football at 33 FC Budapest and was a member of the club until 1907. The German Empire arrives, he then played until 1910 for FC Germania 1901 Bockenheim and one season for the Frankfurter FV Amicitia and 1902 . Returned to the Kingdom of Hungary , he played the 1911/12 season in Osztályú Bajnokság , the top division at the time, again for 33 FC Budapest. After just one season he returned to Frankfurt FV Amicitia and 1902 back before the season, 1913/14 of SpVgg Fürth joined.

The up-and-coming club, which was only founded in 1903, was on its way to becoming a top German team and at that time had created one of the most modern facilities in German football with the stadium Sportplatz am Ronhofer Weg - inaugurated on September 11, 1910.

In the South German Football Federation discharged championship he played in Ostkreis , in one of four regional top divisions, only one season - he scored 13 goals in eleven league matches - which, however, was topped by two regional championships and the German championship.

Under the English coach William Townley , who came from Karlsruhe FV in April 1911 , the team won the South German Championship on the third attempt and demonstrated that they would also play in the final round of the German Championship. It started on May 3, 1914 in Leipzig, as SpVgg 1899 Leipzig could be defeated 2-1 thanks to his goal to equalize in the 62nd minute and the winning goal in the 83rd minute by the "Kleeblätter" striker , Karl Franz .

The semi-finals scheduled for May 17, 1914 in Fürth turned out to be no less exciting. Staying in the stadium sports field at Ronhofer way you had the Berliner BC , who won the Berlin championship, the first (and only) time and may have been motivated accordingly. Against this team, SpVgg Fürth was 2-0 down until the 44th minute, before he scored the all-important goal and equalized in the 62nd minute.

Since nothing had changed in the result after 90 minutes, it was extended to overtime - according to the rules of the time, additional stoppage times of 10 minutes each followed - until a decision was made. Again it was up to Franz to not only achieve the new lead in the 103rd minute, but also the 4: 3 winning goal in the 146th minute, after the Berlin Prussian with his goal in the 119th minute for the interim equalization would have.

On May 31, 1914, he and his team faced none other than the defending champion from Leipzig in the final . Around 6000 spectators had gathered around the Viktoria sports field in Magdeburg to attend the event. Again it was Franz who scored the 1-0 lead after 17 minutes, which was only equalized by Eduard Pendorf in the 83rd minute. In extra time, Weicz took the lead again in the 103rd minute, which only lasted four minutes as Curt Hesse scored to equalize. Again it was reserved for Franz to score the winning goal to 3-2 in the 153rd minute on his submission; seven minutes later referee Kurt von Paquet whistled off the game - SpVgg Fürth were German champions.
