career

Machate played for Guts Muts Dresden in the 1930s and was part of the Saxon team when he was just under 20 . From 1939/40 he was part of the squad of the Gauliga team of the Dresden SC. He was part of the Saxon champions' starting eleven from mid-August 1940 after a game against the Saxons selection (4-2). Guts Muts had meanwhile been relegated from the Gauliga.

A few days later Machate scored his first cup and competitive goal of the season for the DSC at a 4-1 win in Graslitz . He was also on December 1, 1940 in the final eleven for the Tschammer Cup . In the encounter against 1. FC Nürnberg he played center forward and scored the first goal in a 2-1 victory. In 1941 he finally came into the championship finals when he was used in five of the six group games. Machate had scored five goals in the group games, setting a remarkable record. In 36 games of the 1940/41 season he had scored 56 goals. On the other hand, he was missing in the cup final in 1941 , in which the DSC defended the cup with a 2-1 win over Schalke 04. In the 1941/42 season, the DSC missed the Gaume Championship and thus also participation in the German championship finals.

From the end of 1942 Machate gave longer guest appearances at the Breslauer Sport-Vereinigung 02 in the Gauliga Lower Silesia and then at the STC Hirschberg , with which he won the Lower Silesian Gaume Championship. As a result, Machate came in 1944 to two more games in the German championship finals. In the 7-0 win over BSG SDW Posen , he scored two goals, then Hirschberg was eliminated in the round of 16 against First Vienna FC after a 5-0 win. After Hirschberg left, Machate played again for his home club Dresdner SC, for which he played three more final rounds from the quarterfinals. In the 3-1 victory over 1. FC Nürnberg he contributed a goal, in the final he remained goalless as a center forward, but was able to adorn himself with the championship title after the 4-0 of DSC over LSV Hamburg .

After the end of the Second World War , Fritz Machate left Dresden and settled in Bamberg , where he last played in the Oberliga Süd until November 1946 for 1. FC 01 Bamberg . He then moved to FC St. Pauli as a "zone jumper" , with whom he qualified for the Oberliga Nord . There he met the old DSC teammates Walter Dzur , Heinz Hempel and Heinrich Schaffer again. With them he became North German runner- up in 1947/48 and 1948/49 and played his DM finals number 4 and 5 with two and five appearances respectively. After the end of the 1948/49 season, Machate ended his career as a football player at the age of 33 (according to other sources, he still played at VfJ 08 Paderborn ). In the five finals of the German championship he had played a total of 17 games and scored eleven goals. In most of the games he was used as a center forward.

As a coach, Machate led TuRa Bonn in the final of the German Amateur Championship in 1962 . Four years later he led SV Ringsdorff Mehlem to be promoted to the Mittelrhein Association .
