Hans Riedel (soccer player)
Hans Riedel (born March 10, 1929 ) is a former German soccer player. For the BSG Chemie Leipzig and the SC Lokomotive Leipzig he played from 1953 to 1955 in the GDR Oberliga , the highest league in GDR football .
Athletic career
In the 1951/52 season, Hans Riedel began his career in GDR-wide football. As a newcomer to the squad of the second-rate GDR league club BSG Chemie Zeitz , the 22-year-old immediately won a regular place in the league team by completing 20 matches from the 22 matches played. He was usually used as a defender, but was able to score his first GDR league goal on the 19th matchday in the encounter between BSG Chemie and Lok Cottbus at 2-2. In the 1952/53 season, Riedel had also found his regular position on the right defensive side. After playing twelve league games and scoring another goal, he moved to the top division chemistry Leipzig after the first game of the second half of the season.
There Riedel was immediately used in the league team. Of the 17 remaining league games, he played 16 games, first as a midfielder, then in central defense. There he also had his place in 1953/54 after he could not play the first five league games due to injury. At the beginning of the 1954/55 season, BSG Chemie was transferred to the newly founded SC Lokomotive Leipzig. Also in this season and in the transition round 1955 he was handicapped by failures, so that he could complete only eleven of the 39 possible games.
When GDR football was converted to the calendar year rhythm based on the Soviet model in 1956 , Hans Riedel was no longer part of the SC Lokomotive squad. At the age of 27, he had said goodbye to high-class football.
