Player career

Hartmann Madl came from Oberpolling in the Passau district in Lower Bavaria. For the Bundesliga debut season, 1963/64 , the amateur soccer player from the South Bavarian regional league, from 1. FC Passau , came to Karlsruher SC, who played with 1. FC Nürnberg , Eintracht Frankfurt , VfB Stuttgart and TSV 1860 Munich from the old Oberliga Süd for the new soccer Bundesliga had been nominated. In addition to Madl, the Badeners also signed the other offensive forces Erwin Metzger , Siegfried Stark , Gerd Kentschke and Klaus Zaczyk . Metzger and Stark came from the soccer Oberliga Süd , Kentschke (Westphalia) and Madl (Bavaria) from the amateur camp and Zaczyk was noticed by the KSC in the DFB youth national team. Madl, a hard-working, powerful, headball and shooting striker for the top, played his first game in the Bundesliga on August 31, 1963 in the 4-0 defeat at 1. FC Köln. Together with Reinhold Wischnowsky , Josef Marx , Otto Geisert and Erwin Metzger, he formed the attack of the blue-whites from the wildlife park against the clearly superior Cologne. On the fifth match day, September 21, he scored for the first time in the Bundesliga in a 3-1 home defeat and Kentschke's Bundesliga debut against Borussia Dortmund. KSC showed 2:17 goals and 0:10 points after five match days. The adaptation to the increased requirements of the Bundesliga was difficult in Karlsruhe. Coach Kurt Sommerlatt used Madl in fourteen games and the man from Passau contributed three goals to keep Karlsruhe in the league.

In the second year in Karlsruhe, 1964/65 , Madl experienced his most successful time at KSC from the thirteenth match day. On November 28, 1964 he came on the 13th match day of the preliminary round for the second use. In the 64th minute of the game, he scored the interim 1: 1 equalizer in the 1: 2 defeat at Hertha BSC . After the 27th matchday, April 10, 1965, he had expanded his record to 18 games and twelve goals with his two hits at Hannover 96. Madl led the KSC goalscorer list ahead of Horst Wild with eleven goals and Hans Cieslarczyk with eight goals. The good personal lap record was marred by the poor performance of KSC, which was only able to occupy 15th place and had replaced coach Sommerlatt with Helmut Schneider in January 1965 .

In the third KSC year, however, Madl could not confirm his hit qualities, was therefore only used eight times and finally completed his last Bundesliga game on April 23, 1966 in the 1: 3 away defeat at Werder Bremen.

For the 1966/67 round, the player popular in Karlsruhe due to his naturalness and enthusiasm, moved to Switzerland to FC Grenchen in the National League A , where he was active until 1969. He started in Switzerland as a feared center forward, then went through a change from midfielder to cleaner. The stations at FC Aarau and FC Friborg followed.
