Hans-Heinrich Wolf (soccer player)

Hans-Heinrich Wolf (born May 30, 1948 ) was a football player in Karl-Marx-Stadt, today's Chemnitz . For FC Karl-Marx-Stadt , he played in the GDR Oberliga , the top division of the GDR Football Association .

Wolf had been a junior player at SC Karl-Marx-Stadt since 1964, and from 1966 at the outsourced FC Karl-Marx-Stadt, the central Saxon football focus. In 1965 he was accepted into the squad of the GDR junior national team, for which he played eight international matches until 1966. Initially he was used as a striker, later in midfield, but remained without a goal.

On August 10, 1966, Wolf played for the first time in the Bundesliga team of FC Karl-Marx-Stadt. In the match of the 2nd match day between FCK and BFC Dynamo (1-0) he played in the left midfield. It was only on the 22nd matchday that he came to his second and last league game of the 1966/67 season, which FCK finished as champions. Then it took until the 1971/72 season before the new coach Gerhard Hofmann made him a regular player as a right midfielder. Wolf was used in all 26 league games and also rose to the top scorer of the FCK with seven goals. He had already proven his scoring risk in the previous 1970/71 season, in which the FCK had to compete as a relegated league in the second-rate GDR league , with six goals in only 17 league games. Up until relegation, Wolf had only played 21 league games in four seasons and only scored a goal in the 1969/70 relegation season. After the immediate rise in 1971, Wolf was a fixture in the midfield of the FCK's league team for the next few years. By 1975 he played all 26 point games in four consecutive seasons and was again Karl-Marx-Städter top scorer in 1973/74 with ten goals. In his last two FCK seasons, Wolf occupied the position of Libero , including in his last competitive game for FC Karl-Marx-Stadt, the Oberligaheim game against Chemie Leipzig (1: 2) on April 28, 1976. It was his 165th. Point game, and he said goodbye as a 30-time point game goal scorer.

Only 28 years old, Wolf ended his career as a high-performance athlete. He joined the GDR league promoted Motor Ascota Karl-Marx-Stadt in 1977 , where he was active in the third-rate district league Karl-Marx-Stadt from 1978 to 1981 after relegation . As team captain, Wolf rose again with Ascota in 1981 for one season in the GDR league, after which he finally ended his career as a football player again in the district league.
