Helmut Schimeczek (born July 4, 1938 in Berlin ) is a former German football player. The player, who was mainly used as an outside runner in the World Cup system at the time, played 135 league games (31 goals) at SV Werder Bremen from 1958 to 1963 in the first-class soccer Oberliga Nord and 78 league games (3 goals) in the Bundesliga from 1963 to 1970 . He won the DFB Cup with the Green-Whites in 1961 and the German soccer championship in 1965 .

Career

The 20-year-old young player came to Werder Bremen in 1958 via the stations Norden-Nordwest Berlin, Blau-Weiß 90 Berlin and VfB Fallersleben , where he then spent his professional career at Werder until 1970. The outrunner or half-striker immediately became a top performer among the green-whites and became one of the guarantors that Werder won the North German runner-up five times in a row. In the Oberliga Nord he made his debut on August 17, 1958 under coach Georg Knöpfle in a 4-0 away defeat against Altona 93. The previous amateur footballer immediately played all 30 league games and scored six goals. The north vice had to play a qualifying game against Borussia Neunkirchen before the final round of the German soccer championship. On May 3, Bremen prevailed 6: 3 in Düsseldorf; Schimeczek was the left wing runner at the side of goalkeeper Dragomir Ilic and defender Hans Hagenacker . In the group games, the future German champions Eintracht Frankfurt clearly dominated and also added a bit of clap to Bremen in the Weser Stadium in front of 42,000 spectators with a 7-2 away win. The offensive power of Eintracht with the strikers Richard Kreß , István Sztani , Eckehard Feigenspan , Dieter Lindner and Alfred Pfaff could not effectively fight the north vice. It was only enough to a 5-2 home win against FK Pirmasens, where Schimeczek contributed a goal.

In 1961 he won the DFB Cup with Bremen after a 2-0 win in the final against 1. FC Kaiserslautern . The goal scorers were Willi Schröder and Helmut Jagielski . In the 1961/62 European Cup Winners' Cup , he played four games against Aarhus GF and Atletico Madrid. On the last matchday of the old first-class Oberliga Nord, April 29, 1963, he and his teammates won 4-2 at ASV Bergedorf 85. He made his Bundesliga debut on October 5, 1963 in a 3: 4 away defeat at what would later become the first Bundesliga champions 1. FC Cologne. In the Bundesliga’s debut year, 1963/64, he made 20 appearances under coach Willi Multhhaup and scored one goal, Werder finished in 10th place. When his club surprisingly won the German championship by three points over defending champion Cologne in the second Bundesliga year of 1964/65 , he had only played six games. Werder only conceded 29 goals in 30 rounds. When Bremen in 1966/67 under coach Günter Brocker just managed to stay in the league with 16th place, Schieczek was used again in 24 Bundesliga games. Just as surprisingly came the runner-up in 1967/68 under Fritz Langner . In the 1969/70 season he played on April 1, 1970, in a catch-up game, in a 1-0 home win against Hannover 96, his last appearance in the Bundesliga. He was substituted on under coach Hans Tilkowski in the 35th minute for Ole Bjørnmose .

Schimeczek later worked as a trainer at 1860 Bremen, Olympia Wilhelmshaven and at Bremer SV .
