Career

Bonn and Berlin, until 1965

At Bonn FV , the 1.92-meter man made his first steps in higher-class football in the 2nd West League between 1961 and 1963. At the side of teammates like Herbert Dörner and Coşkun Taş he scored 25 goals in 44 second division games for the team from Sportpark Gronau. In the last year of the II. Division, 1962/63 , Bonn finished 16th with 9:51 points and 26:98 goals. The twelve goals by center forward Fischer in his 20 league appearances were remarkable. He received an offer from Tasmania Berlin and moved to the last runner-up in the Berlin City League in the summer of 1963 .

The newcomer from Bonn made his debut on August 25, 1963 in the away game against BSV 92 in the Berlin Regionalliga. The team from Neukölln won the game 2-0. In the attack, the team of coach Gunther Baumann in the line-up with Wolfgang Neumann , Helmut Fiebach , center forward Fischer, Wolfgang Rosenfeldt and Erich Reimer came up. Eight days later, the tall, powerful and powerful attacker scored his first goals for Tasmania in the Regionalliga. He scored two goals in the 4-2 win against BFC Südring. An exciting duel for the championship between Tasmania and the "violets" from Tennis Borussia Berlin developed . At the end of 1963, "Sturmtank" Fischer impressed in an international friendly against Vojvodina Novisad . In the goalless 0-0 he was the best striker on the lawn of the Poststadion and the young talent Wulf-Ingo Usbeck made a lasting impression. In the Berlin season of ten, which was held in three rounds, TeBe prevailed in the three immediate games against the team from the Neukölln Stadium on Oderstrasse with 2: 0, 2: 2 and 1: 1, but Tasmania won the championship with 46: 8 points and a goal difference of 73:22, four points ahead of Tennis Borussia. The third game (1: 1) of the rivals had watched on April 19, 1964 at the Oderstrasse 5740 paying spectators. Heinz Fischer had scored 24 goals in 25 league appearances and thus also won the top scorer's crown in Berlin. Personally, the striker put in the Bundesliga promotion round against the competitors Borussia Neunkirchen , FC Bayern Munich and FC St. Pauli in June 1964, but still the crown on his round performance in Berlin.

To the completely surprising 5: 1 start success against the Southwest champion from Neunkirchen, he contributed three goals in the home game in front of 22,000 spectators on June 6th. The Saarlanders' defense with goalkeeper Willi Ertz and the defense and runner row with Günter Schröder , Erwin Glod , Achim Melcher , Erich Leist and Dieter Schock should prove to be competitive in the Bundesliga in the coming 1964/65 season. During the football week, the Tas center forward was described by Günther Weise as follows: “Fischer is one of the strangest guys you have come to know as a center forward. His game doesn't look like anything at first, and people in the Poststadion were already grumbling about his immobility. But suddenly he had 'secretly' pushed his opponents aside and heaved the ball into the Borussia goal to make it 2-0. From that moment on there was no stopping him, he covered the ball incredibly skillfully with his massive body, and Stopper Leist simply no longer knew what to do with this master in 'slow motion'! "

On June 20, Fischer scored two goals in the 3: 3 home draw against St. Pauli, where he mostly had to deal with the defensive boss Ingo Porges in the duels. Four days later, on June 24th in front of 40,000 spectators in the Olympic Stadium, he again laid the foundation for a surprising 3-0 home win against Zlatko Čajkovski's team , FC Bayern Munich , with two goals . Sepp Maier , Adolf Kunstwadl , Peter Kupferschmidt , Franz Beckenbauer , Herbert Erhardt , Jakob Drescher , Rainer Ohlhauser , Werner Ipta and Dieter Brenninger represented well-known players in the ranks of Munich , who in the following years were not only able to perform in the Bundesliga . The courier stated on June 25: “Center forward Fischer, this knockouter of football, a puncher without nerves, had struck twice without blinking an eye. First, the defender Kupferschmidt stumbled next to him, and the running goalkeeper Maier he cleverly mated with his head, as if a tennis player with a praise in a bow over the opponent. Three minutes later a steep pass came flying, Fischer raced off, and his shot rushed into the net so infallibly to 2-0 that everything was decided instantly. "After his first bitter defeat in the men's division, Franz Beckenbauer had nothing but praise for his opponent Fischer:" My opponent Fischer is a well-rounded man who knows how to cover the ball with his body and who is extremely powerful. It was difficult to keep him. ”Teammate Hans-Günter Becker, who played 33 games for Tasmania in the 1965/66 Bundesliga season, commented on the“ fantastic ”game in 1964 against Bayern at Leske with the explanation that“ this was one of the best games I've ever played in ”and Fischer,“ a wonderful player, played with Jojo. The national player Erhardt and Beckenbauer didn't see a trick against him ”. In the decisive game on June 28th in Saarbrücken's Ludwigsparkstadion in front of 38,000 spectators against Borussia Neunkirchen, Fischer could not prevail against a double stopper and the Saarlanders moved into the Bundesliga with a 1-0 win. Together with Walter Rodekamp from Hannover 96, Fischer topped the scorers list of the promotion round in 1964 with seven goals each.

Tasmania entered the 1964/65 round without Baumann as a trainer, Franz Linken became the new trainer . Despite fierce attempts to poach him, striker Fischer has to fulfill his contract for another year. The departures Bäsler and Reimer will be replaced by Peter Engler and Jürgen Wähling . Heinz Fischer wins the top scorer's crown in the Regionalliga Berlin for the second time in a row; in 24 league games he scored 25 goals. He leads the scorer list ahead of Willi Kraus from Tennis Borussia with 23 goals. Tasmania only comes in third behind TeBe and Spandauer SV. After the first half of the season Spandau was still leading the table with 25: 1 points ahead of TeBe (21: 5) and Tasmania (19: 7). Behind top scorer Fischer, technician Peter Engler, with twelve goals in just 14 games (he was suspended for weeks in the first half of the season because of an insult to the referee), is second in the team.

In the Player Encyclopedia II, Leske zu Fischer states: “The game often passed the heavyweight Bonnie, and at times he completely disappeared. If you wanted to despair, he suddenly struck. Fischer was able to push his massive body between the stopper and the ball, shield the leather and then finish it ice-cold. He had excellent shooting technique and was an effective header player thanks to his height. Harmonized brilliantly with Fiebach, who played half right, for two years. "

For the 1965/66 round he returned to West Germany and joined the West Eintracht Gelsenkirchen regional football league .

Gelsenkirchen, 1965/66

The team from the Stadion am Südpark, the blue-reds from Gelsenkirchen's south, SG Eintracht Gelsenkirchen, expected the outstanding local derby of the "Royal Blues" from FC Schalke 04 until shortly before the start of the round. Schalke had 16th place in 1964/65. and last place in the Bundesliga and was relegated to the Regionalliga West. But it came completely different; the Bundesliga was increased to 18 clubs, Hertha BSC was forcibly excluded, Tasmania 1900 was added as a Berlin representative and the two sporty relegated teams from Karlsruhe and Schalke remained in the class. From the dream at Eintracht of the local derby against "Royal Blue". The Ückendorfer couldn't cope with it mentally, the team of coach Karl-Heinz Spikofski played a bad round and had to be content with 16th place at the end of the round. For the former top scorer from Tasmannia Berlin, Heinz Fischer, the round turned into a nightmare. He only made 16 appearances alongside fellow players such as goalkeeper Bernd Becker and field players Hubert Kostotzky , Heinz Banschewitz , Klaus Kubasik , Manfred Herberhold , Horst Laschober , Gerd Ziemann , Hans-Jürgen Jansen and the great midfield talent Wolfgang Glock and only scored two Goals for unity.

At the end of the round, from the summer of 1966, the trail of the goalscorer from Bonn and Berlin times is lost. From the literature listed, it is not possible to find out the possible reason for the premature quitting, as well as the impossibility of further stations in amateur football.
