Gert "Charly" Dörfel (born September 18, 1939 in Hamburg ) is a former German football player . He played for Hamburger SV for most of his career and is the club's first goalscorer in the Bundesliga .
family
Dörfel comes from a well-known football family. His father Friedo Dörfel (1915-1980) played as a winger or defender from 1933 to 1948 for Hamburger SV and in 1942 played two international matches. Brother Bernd Dörfel (* 1944) made 15 international matches between 1966 and 1969 and played 139 times as right winger at HSV and Eintracht Braunschweig from 1963 to 1970 . His uncle Richard Dörfel (1911–1965) was once the honorary captain of Hamburger SV.
Club player
Dörfel came to Hamburger SV for the 1958/59 season with a transfer fee of 3,000 marks from the third-rate club Polizei SV Hamburg , in whose youth he began playing football in 1949 . At the time he was playing in the Oberliga Nord , one of the five top divisions in German football at the time. His main position was left winger , where he was mostly a successful flank giver for center forward Uwe Seeler . In his 347 games for HSV (including 224 in the Bundesliga ), he himself scored 114 goals (Bundesliga: 58). On August 24, 1963 (1st matchday) Dörfel was the first Bundesliga scorer of the HSV when he scored the 1-1 equalizer in the 80th minute in the away game against Preußen Münster . A week later he was the first Bundesliga player to score three goals in a game (in a 4-2 win against 1. FC Saarbrücken on the second match day). In addition to his footballing talents, he occasionally worked as a mood maker on the football field, for example by distributing sweets to both his teammates and his opponents. In 1965 he recorded his own single with Germany's largest record company Polydor ( I can't forgive you / First a kiss ). Dörfel is also known for going overboard every now and then by giving the referee a wrong name ("Meier") when he was warned during a game and was then sent off. Nevertheless, he also made a name for himself as an outstanding footballer, because in 1965 he was voted the best left winger in Europe by the French sports newspaper “L'Équipe”. With Hamburger SV, Dörfel was each German champion (1960) and DFB Cup winner (1963). In 1968 he was in the final of the European Cup Winners' Cup (HSV - AC Milan 0: 2). HSV took part in the competition as a finalist in the DFB Cup final (HSV - FC Bayern Munich 0: 4). On August 28, 1971 Dörfel played his last Bundesliga game: HSV - FC Schalke 04 0-1. After the end of his career at HSV, he made short guest appearances in South Africa at the Johannesburg football clubs Highland Parks and Lusitano Club as well as in Canada . In 1973/74 he played for one season with the Hamburg club HSV Barmbek-Uhlenhorst in the then second-rate Regionalliga Nord.
National player
Dörfel's talent was discovered early by the DFB coaches , and so he played once in the DFB junior team and then made three appearances in the amateur national team . Two of these three games completed the left winger in 1959 against Finland (one goal) and Poland as part of the qualification for the Olympic football tournament in Rome. He played his first international match on August 3, 1960 in Reykjavík against Iceland . In the 5-0 win he scored two hits in his traditional position as a left winger. The fact that, despite his seven goals, he only made eleven full international matches was due to his unconventional behavior at the time, with which he met with little understanding from national coaches Sepp Herberger and Helmut Schön . Dörfel came to his last international match on November 4, 1964 in the World Cup qualifier against Sweden (1: 1 in Berlin). At the 1962 World Cup in Chile, he was not part of the DFB squad.
Life after football career
After Dörfel had played his last game at HSV Barmbek-Uhlenhorst in 1974, he took up a job at the Hamburg-Stellingen local office. However, he did not disappear from the public eye, because for many years he still performed as a clown, including in the Krone Circus . As a pensioner he settled in Meckelfeld near Hamburg.
On the occasion of his 80th birthday, the soccer field of the Hamburg regional division club FC Viktoria Harburg was renamed "Charly-Dörfel-Platz".
