Player career

Club career

Sabitzer began his career at his hometown club in Sankt Georgen ob Judenburg and then joined the then second division club DSV Alpine in the 1980s . After he made his professional debut on November 29, 1986 in a 1-0 away win over Union Vöcklamarkt , when he came on the lawn for Werner Gregoritsch from the 66th minute , he spent most of the time with the club's amateur team . It was not until 1990 that he made the final leap into the professional squad. After the year under the blast furnace, he ended up at Casino Salzburg . The striker became Austrian champions with the Salzburg team. In 1994 he moved to LASK Linz . After the rise of the GAK in 1995, he moved to Graz. In 1998, the Styrian went back to the Salzburgers, who were now known as Wüstenrot Salzburg . After his contract in Graz he could have moved to the English Premier League at West Bromwich Albion for free , which he refused, although the change was already fixed in principle. Until 2001 he was again under contract in Salzburg, but played from August 2000 until the winter transfer period 2001/02 at the Carinthian club BSV Bad Bleiberg , which was promoted to the second highest Austrian league , which came about thanks to the cooperation between the Salzburgers and Carinthians, since the Bleiberg President Egon Putzi was also represented on the Salzburg Presidium. He then played for the then second division club SV Mattersburg . After the rise of Mattersburger, he moved to the Styrian regional league at SC Kalsdorf .

After two years and a promotion to the regional league later, Sabitzer moved to ATUS Ferlach in the fourth-class Carinthian regional league in summer 2005 , before moving to SV Allerheiligen in the Styrian regional league after six months . After he had already led Kalsdorf into the regional league, he also managed to do so with All Saints' Day, which he only belonged to in the spring season. Subsequently, he joined in the summer of 2006 in the siebentklassige Styrian territory League Murtal to UPS Sankt Peter ob Judenburg , where he again belonged to the local first team a year and was at the end of the season with significant lead champions and promotion to the sechstklassige Minor League North B managed. At that time, his brother Horst was also the club's section head; Herfried Sabitzer himself was also at least league's top scorer with 30 goals in 21 games. In the 2007/08 season Herfried Sabitzer was at SC Lockenhaus , a club of the Burgenland Football Association with games in the sixth class 1st class middle . With the team he came in eighth place in the final classification and thus occupied a place in the middle of the table. He was also the best-scoring player in Burgenland, although the actual goals can only be guessed at, as the association's side only shows stakes from the 16th round of the game, with Sabitzer contributing 14 goals in eleven games from this point up to the end of the season.

This was followed in the summer of 2008 by a change to the also lower-class Styrian club TuS Greinbach with play in the fifth-class Oberliga Süd / Ost . At the end of the season he rose with the team as the last place in the sixth class lower league east . By then he was again the top scorer of his team, scoring 15 goals in 23 of 26 league games that had been possible. In the following season 2009/10 he was still a member of the regular formation of the lower league team and scored eight goals in 22 league games and was, especially at the start of the season, leader in the team's internal scorers list for a long period before his hit rate decreased. With the team, he finished fifth in the final table. He was also seen as dangerous goals in cup and friendly matches this season and was only eliminated from the current tournament with the team in the Styrian Cup in the fifth round against later finalists SV Lafnitz . At the beginning of the 2010/11 season, Sabitzer completed a few more games for the lower division team, but ended his career as an active player in the fall season after nine league games in which he scored three goals and devoted himself entirely to his coaching activity.

National team career

Sabitzer played six times for the Austrian national team between 1992 and 1997 and scored one goal.

Coaching career

Herfried Sabitzer was the coach of the then national league club SC Kalsdorf from September 10, 2007 until the end of the 2007 autumn season . Later, from July 2010 to July 2012, he worked as an assistant coach at Grazer AK for two years and, at the same time, from March 2011 to June 2012 coach of his former club TuS Greinbach . He was then introduced in October 2012 as assistant trainer at DSV Leoben and held this position until June 2013. Immediately afterwards, in the fifth round in autumn 2013, he took over the coaching position at the southern Styrian club SV Gralla ; but at the end of the autumn season there was the separation two months later. After there was no financial agreement with Sabitzer and the club did not want to hire a new coach, two active players took over the club's coaching activities in the spring. After the goal announced at that time to hold a midfield position and, if possible, to advance into the upper ranks failed in the course of spring, the previous coaching duo was dissolved. Instead, Stefan Zöhrer, part of the duo, remained active as head coach and Sabitzer supported the venture “relegation” from April 1, 2014 as assistant coach. After that the cooperation was dissolved again.
