career

Clubs, 1962 to 1982

Hans-Jörg Pfister's career began as a C-youth at the FC Mett district club in Biel / Bienne . 1970, the offensive talent closed the playing in the National League A FC Biel on. For the team from the Gurzelen stadium , he stormed two laps and, after relegation in 1972, accepted the offer from Servette Geneva and moved to the Stade des Charmilles . The striker, who was feared because of his move on the opposing goal, came in the 1974/75 season with 17 goals in the top scorer list in second place. “Joko” was in the cup final with the “Servettiens” for the first time in 1975/76 after he had scored three goals in the semifinals in a 6-2 win against GC . But the final was lost with 0-1 goals against GC city rivals FC Zurich . Three times in a row he took second place in the national league with the "Grenats" from 1976 to 1978. In 1976/77 "Joko" scored 15 goals alongside Claude Andrey , Umberto Barberis and Martin Chivers . But Servette lost the playoff for the championship with 1: 2 goals against FC Basel . But Pfister received the personal honor of Footballer of the Year 1977. In the 1977/78 round, a meniscus damage put him on hold for months and so he also missed the victorious cup final against GC.

In the legendary 1978/79 season, "Joko" Pfister was back in action under coach Péter Pázmándy and Captain Gilbert Guyot alongside his teammates Serge Trinchero , Lucio Bizzini , Karl Engel , Marc Schnyder , Claude Andrey, Umberto Barberis and Piet Hamberg . The "Servettiens" won the League Cup, the Alpine Cup, the Swiss Cup and the Swiss Championship . After this triumph he moved to GC in Zurich. He also played in a successful team in Zurich. In 1980 and 1981 he was runner-up with GC and in the 1981/82 season winning the championship was celebrated in front of Servette Geneva.

In the European Cup he was used from 1974/75 to 1978/79 for Servette and from 1979/80 to 1981/82 for GC Zurich.

National team, 1973 to 1981

Under coach René Hüssy , "Joko" Pfister celebrated his debut in the "Nati" on November 18, 1973 in the World Cup qualifier against Turkey in Izmir . After the "events around the night of Oslo", Pfister and "Köbi" Kuhn were excluded from the national team after the 1-0 defeat in the World Cup qualifier against Norway. Under coach Leo Walker - the ban imposed by the SFV was lifted - he made his comeback on September 12, 1979 in the European Championship qualifier against Poland. In the fall of 1980 he distinguished himself as a goal scorer in the international matches against Denmark (1: 1), Germany (2: 3) and in the World Cup qualifier in London on November 19 against England (1: 2). With the first game of coach Paul Wolfisberg on March 24, 1981 in Bratislava against Czechoslovakia, the career of "Joko" Pfister ended after 26 games with five goals in the national team.
