career

In his last year as a junior, 1954/55, Greuel won the championship in the young league with Tas and was also used in the second half of the season in four games (2 goals) in the first team in the amateur league under coach Gerhard Graf . By the runner- up Tasmania rose to the contract league. Greuel completed a commercial apprenticeship. On September 4, 1955, the young player made his debut in a 4-0 win against Union with a converted penalty in the Berlin upper house. In 21 league appearances he scored six goals and Tas ended up in 9th place. With the club he was in 1959, 1960 and 1962 under coach Fritz Maurischat champion and took part in the finals of the German football championship . His first game in the final round of the German championship took him to the Rote Erde stadium in Dortmund to play on May 16, 1959 against the champions of the Oberliga West, Westfalia Herne. In front of goalkeeper Hans-Joachim Posinski , the “Long Guard” from Neukölln formed the defensive network with Hans-Jürgen Bäsler , Horst Talaszus , Horst Mauruschat , Eckhardt Peschke and Greuel. With a goal by Gerhard Clement in the 39th minute, the game was lost 0: 1 in front of 30,000 spectators. The first home game on May 23rd saw 70,000 spectators in the Olympic Stadium and the Berlin champions defied the South Vice-Champions Kickers Offenbach from a 2-2 draw. On May 30, 90,000 spectators were in the 0: 2 defeat by two goals by Uwe Seeler in the Olympic Stadium. The defending champion from Berlin started the second final round on May 15, 1960 with a 2-1 away win against FK Pirmasens and a 2-1 win at home against SV Werder Bremen on May 21. In the 1: 2 home defeat on May 29 against the eventual finalists 1. FC Köln, Greuel scored the next goal in the 90th minute of the game. Tasmania ended the group games on June 18, 1960 with a 5-2 home win against Pirmasens and took 3rd place with 6: 6 points. The "single round" in the 1962 world championship year brought a 1-0 win against Borussia Neunkirchen, a 1-1 draw against FC Schalke 04 and the decisive 1-2 home defeat against 1. FC Nürnberg. With 3: 3 points, the Berlin champions finished the group games in 2nd place. The standard runner series was run by Hans-Günter Becker , Peschke and Greuel.

Since Hertha BSC was accepted as a Berlin representative in the newly starting Bundesliga from 1963/64, Tasmania started in 1900 in the second-class Berlin Regionalliga . Tas became the first champion and played a promotion round with 6: 6 points against the surprise newcomers Borussia Neunkirchen, FC Bayern Munich and FC St. Pauli. But Greuel was no longer able to actively participate; on April 19, 1964, he sustained a serious knee injury while playing against Tennis Borussia and had to undergo knee surgery. After 17 regional league appearances in 1963/64, the regional league era was over for Greuel. In the 1964/65 season he was unable to return to round-the-clock operations.
