career

Oberliga Südwest, 1959 to 1963

From his own Mainz offspring, the young defensive talent was taken over in the 1959/60 season in the league team of the zero fives in the then first-class Oberliga Südwest. Under the new coach Heinz Baas he made his debut on August 16, 1959, the first round match day, in the major league with a 2-0 home win against Sportfreunde 05 Saarbrücken as a left defender in the World Cup system at that time . The home team Bruchwegstadion achieved Lothar Buchmann and Ulrich Muhl the hit and the 19-year-old debutant excelled in guarding the winger Hans-Jürgen massion out. At the end of the season, the former youth player had completed 27 league games and scored two goals; Mainz took 12th place. In his second senior year 1960/61, the class of the newcomer Erich Bäumler and the conversion of coach Baas to a more flexible game system based on the South American model with an early form of the Libero and a central midfielder that the red-whites could occupy fifth place, Müllges had only missing in a league game. When the old first class of the Oberliga ended after the 1962/63 season and the Bundesliga started for the 1963/64 season, the defender had played 99 league games in four rounds and scored three goals for the Baas-Elf.

Regionalliga Südwest, 1963 to 1971

In the debut year of the second-rate Regionalliga-Südwest, the 1963/64 season, Müllges took fourth place with his teammates and had played all 38 league games in the 20s season. The following season 1964/65 became the sporting highlight due to the excellent performances in the cup. First, the zero fives prevailed in the southwest against Eintracht Bad Kreuznach (3: 1), Hassia Bingen (6: 2), SV Hildburg Elkenroth (4: 1) and with a 4: 0 win at TuS Neuendorf in the fourth round and thus moved into the DFB Cup . In January and February 1965 they eliminated two Bundesliga clubs in the first two rounds. On January 16, Werder Bremen came to Mainz as leaders of the Bundesliga with 23:13 points and were defeated 1-0 in front of 12,000 spectators. Bremen managed to win the German championship at the end of the round . On February 6, Müllges and colleagues wrestled a 2-2 draw after extra time from TSV 1860 Munich under coach Max Merkel in front of 20,000 spectators. A fortnight later, on February 17th, they even managed a 2-1 away win in the stadium on Grünwalder Strasse . The European Cup finalist from Munich competed in the attack with Alfred Heiß , Hans Rebele , Rudi Brunnenmeier , Peter Grosser and Rudolf Steiner . In the quarter-finals on February 27, the Mainz team were able to defy 1. FC Nürnberg in front of 24,000 spectators until the second half, before the “club” prevailed 3-0 in the second 45 minutes. After 22 Bundesliga games, the Franconians were in fourth place with 27:17 points, tied with second and third place, traveled to Rheinhessen and had outstanding performers in their ranks with Ludwig Müller , Heinz Strehl and Ferdinand Wenauer . Müllges had mainly dealt with Swiss national striker Anton Allemann in the duels .

In the third regional league season 1965/66, Müllges just missed the Bundesliga promotion round with the new playmaker Horst Hülß with third place. A convincing second half of the season with 23: 7 points - there were only two defeats and three draws in addition to ten wins - was not enough in the end to prevent the champions FK Pirmasens and runner-up 1. FC Saarbrücken from entering the promotion round. Constancy on the defensive played a major role in the success of this round, where a well-rehearsed block acted with goalkeeper Kurt Planitzer , the defenders Müllges and Heinz Wassermann , the outside runners Günther Dutine and Kurt Sauer , as well as in central defense with Gerhard Görlach and Carlo Storck only had 39 goals conceded in 30 league games.

When in the 1970/71 season coach Erich Gehbauer rearranged the squad of the zero five with Walter Ziehmer , Peter Scherer , Herbert Scheller , Bernd Schmitt , Jürgen Janz , Hans-Joachim Jakobi and the two goalkeepers Wolfgang Kneib and Wolfgang Orben , captain Müllges forced one protracted thigh problem in winter after 300 league and five cup games in the jersey of the zero five, in summer 1971 after twelve league rounds to end his career.
