For the second Bundesliga season 1964/65 at Hamburger SV, the two players from their own amateur team, Holger Dieckmann and Erhard Schwerin, were taken over into the professional squad of coach Georg Gawliczek . In addition came still Heiko Kurth of Altona 93, Andreas Maté New York Hungarians and the Finnish international striker Juhani Peltonen . The defensive talent Dieckmann - he had come to the HSV amateurs from Viktoria Wilhelmsburg - surprisingly played 21 games in his first Bundesliga season and HSV finished 11th. He made his debut on September 19, 1964 in a 3-0 home win against Meidericher SV as a left defender in the Bundesliga. Also on the last round match day, May 15, 1965, in the 2-4 home defeat against bottom of the table Schalke 04, he was in the HSV defense.

On May 25, 1965 Dieckmann made his debut in the junior national team , which defeated the English selection 1-0 in front of 9,500 spectators in Freiburg's Möslestadion . His teammates in this game were Volker Danner , Theodor Redder , Ludwig Müller , Hans Reich , Dieter Kurrat , Horst Gecks , Hans Schulz , Sigfried Held , Hannes Löhr and Horst Wild . It was Dieckmann's only appointment in a DFB selection team.

Although Egon Horst and Willi Schulz, two recognized defenders, moved to Hamburg for the 1965/66 round , Dieckmann made 20 more appearances in the second year and scored two more goals.

The game year 1967/68 turned out to be the most outstanding sporting round. In the Bundesliga, Dieckmann, who can be used in midfield and defense, played 27 league games alongside Jürgen Kurbjuhn , Uwe Seeler , Werner Krämer , Helmut Sandmann , Gert Dörfel and Franz-Josef Hönig and finished 13th with the Rothosen. In the European Cup Winners' Cup he was in the HSV games against Randers Freja, Wisla Krakau, in the three games against Olympique Lyon , in the semifinals against Cardiff City and in the final on May 23, 1968 in Rotterdam against AC Milan in the surprisingly strong performance HSV team. The Swedish ex-international striker Kurt Hamrin decided the final for Milan with two goals .

In the Bundesliga followed in 1968/69 the increase to sixth place in the table and with 32 appearances Dieckmann led the list of defensive players in this round. Only the offensive players Gert Dörfel and Franz-Josef Hönig showed the same missions and Uwe Seeler led the internal ranking with 33 games and 23 hits.

After this round that went very well for him personally, Holger Dieckmann ended his active career in the summer of 1969. Since the dual workload became too great for the sports journalist and Dieckmann wanted to look after his family more intensively, he submitted his resignation to HSV on April 21, 1969. His license player contract remained valid until the end of the 1970/71 season, but Dieckmann refused to return to active football.

After his time as a Bundesliga player, Holger Dieckmann was still active as a recreational footballer in the Hamburg press selection , with which he won the "press duck" donated by the DFB against a selection from Württemberg / Ruhr in Nuremberg in 1969 .

Volunteering

On February 1, 1967, Dieckmann was the first active licensed player to be appointed as an assessor with voting rights by the DFB Federal Court . The committee decided in favor of Dieckmann, who works as a sports journalist, as he could not be used by Hamburger SV due to the consequences of an injury to the Achilles tendon .

In addition, Dieckmann represented the interests of the players in Hamburger SV at the working conference of the Bundesliga section of the German employees' union .
