Player career

societies

Born in Munich, Jakob came to Regensburg, his parents' hometown, when he was a small child. At the age of twelve he started playing soccer in the soccer department of TV 1861 Regensburg , initially as a field player. Due to the lack of a goalkeeper, he was given this position. Due to the clean divorce that took place on February 28, 1924, the football department was formed as Sportbund Jahn Regensburg , which Jakob joined. He played his first of 1000 games (until 1942) for the first team in 1926 at the age of 18 in a 3-2 win in the regional league game against SpVgg Landshut . With the promotion to the first-class district class in the following season, he was active in this until 1933. From 1933 to 1935 and - due to relegation - from 1937 to 1942 he played in the first-class Gauliga Bayern , which from 1939 was officially called the sports class. He won the district selection competition for the Adolf Hitler Cup in 1933 with the district selection Bavaria on August 6, 1933 in Munich, with 6: 1 in the replay against the district selection Berlin-Brandenburg , after the final on July 23, 1933 with a 2: 2 -There was no winner in a tie. The finale to the Reichsbund Cup in 1939 , however, he lost the Gauauswahl Bavaria with 1: 2 goals against Gauauswahl Silesia .

During the Second World War - exempted from service at the front - he lived in Upper Bavaria for professional reasons from 1943 and completed three seasons for FC Bayern Munich , his last in the newly created Oberliga Süd in which he played on November 4, 1945 (1st match day) 1: 2nd defeat in the away game against 1. FC Nürnberg and most recently, in his third league game, on January 27, 1946 (13th matchday) in the 0: 2 defeat in the away game against the Stuttgarter Kickers . In the 1946/47 season he helped out at 1. FC Lichtenfels in Upper Franconia in the second-class Bavarian regional league before returning to Regensburg. He was active for the reserve team of the Upper Palatinate until 1949, before he had to end his career at the age of 41 for health reasons.

National team

Discovered by Reich coach Otto Nerz at the final round of the South German Championship in 1930 , Jakob was appointed to the senior national team. He made his debut in the national jersey on November 2, 1930 in Wroclaw in a 1-1 draw against Norway - his only international match this season. In 1932 he was already used five times and in 1933 twice before he took part with the team in the World Cup held in Italy from May 27 to June 10, 1934 . His only tournament game was the 3: 2 against the selection of Austria won 3rd place match . In 1934 and 1935, he completed four and five international matches, respectively, before taking part with the team in the Olympic football tournament held in Berlin from August 3 to 15, 1936 and with them after the unexpected 2-0 defeat on August 7 in the quarter-finals against the selection of Norway was eliminated from the tournament. In the 1936/37 season he completed the largest number of international matches with nine missions, including the legendary game of the Breslau-Elf , which won 8-0 against Denmark on May 16, 1937 in Breslau, Silesia .

On June 20, 1937, he was a member of a Western European team that was defeated 1: 3 in Amsterdam by a Central European team .

With three successful qualifying matches in 1937, participation in the 1938 World Cup in France was secured, but he stayed away because of the sudden death of his four and a half year old daughter. His last of 38 international matches, he played on September 24, 1939 in Budapest in the 5-1 defeat against Hungary . His record: 22 wins, 8 draws, 8 defeats - 91:54 goals. With the 3: 6 defeat suffered on May 14, 1938 in Berlin against the selection of England , he had to accept the most goals conceded in a game.
