career

Harry Behre's football career began in the youth and senior level at Grün-Weiß 07 Hamburg. For the 1960/61 season he moved to the amateur team of the reigning German champions , Hamburger SV . The amateur made his debut on October 19, 1960 in a 1-0 home win against Holstein Kiel in what was then the first-class soccer Oberliga Nord . Coach Günter Mahlmann had the HSV storm appear in the line-up with Gerhard Krug , Horst Dehn , Klaus Stürmer , Behre and Klaus Neisner . The debutant scored the winning goal. At the end of the round, Behre was used on June 1, 1961 in Oberhausen in a 5-3 win against the Netherlands by the DFB once in the amateur national team . In the last two rounds of the old league, 1961/62 and 1962/63, he was a contract player in the league squad of the series champions of the Oberliga Nord. In total, he completed 32 rounds in this league and scored five goals. In the finals for the German football championship in 1962 and 1963, he was used in the games against Eintracht Frankfurt (1: 2) and Borussia Neunkirchen (0: 3).

For the 1963/64 season he was a member of the first HSV squad for the new Bundesliga. Since the club submitted its documents to the DFB very early on and there was no HSV player in front of him alphabetically, Harry Behre received the Bundesliga player pass with license number 001. Behre made his debut on October 5, 1963 with a 5-1 home win against Hertha BSC in the Bundesliga. In front of 40,000 spectators, Hubert Stapelfeldt and Dieter Seeler formed the host's runner row. In the second half, the Berliners were lost to the storm of HSV. Outstanding threader: Harry Behre, a wonder of the run. The debutante got the best player rating with 1.0. At the end of the round, the "Rautträger" finished in 6th place and Behre had scored a goal in 22 missions (always as the right wing runner).

In the European Cup Winners' Cup , the little bundle of energy was involved in the three exciting games against CF Barcelona in November and December 1963: In Barcelona there was a 4: 4 goal-rich, the second leg in Hamburg ended 0: 0, so that a decider on December 18, 1963 in Lausanne had to bring the decision. After the 0-0 half-time result, Behre brought HSV 1-0 in the 52nd minute. Ten minutes later, Sándor Kocsis gave the Catalans a 2-1 lead with two goals , before Uwe Seeler shot the Hanseatic League into the quarter-finals with two goals . There the HSV retired with Behre in March 1964 against the French representative Olympique Lyon . The appearance in the DFB Cup was less pleasant : In Hamburg, the southern German regional league team SpVgg Fürth defied HSV in the first main round on April 7, 1964 with a surprising 1-1 after extra time; The Bundesliga team lost the replay eight days later in Fürth in front of 22,000 spectators with 1: 2 after extra time. In both games, Behre formed the runner row with Willi Giesemann and Dieter Seeler.

In 1967 he reached the final of the DFB Cup with HSV , but was not used there. From the following season he played at HSV Barmbek-Uhlenhorst in the Regionalliga Nord , where he came to 76 games and two goals from 1967 to 1970.

Harry Behre later returned to HSV and remained loyal to his club. At times he was a member of the board, treasurer and head of the amateur soccer team. Harry Behre is the manager of the HSV old league. When Uwe Seeler announced his announcement on August 28, 1995 that he would take over the presidency of Hamburger SV, Harry Behre was also a member of the “Uwe Seeler Team” around Volker Lange and Jürgen Engel .
