Isidor "Iszo, Isi" Gansl , Hungarian Gansl Izidor (* 1896 in Budapest , Austria-Hungary , † 1938 in Vienna ) was an Austrian - Romanian football player in the position of the striker .

Career

Iszo Gansl was one of five brothers who all played for SC Hakoah Vienna . In 1910 he joined the school team of the club that had only been founded the year before, before he founded the Unitas sports club with his brother Max . In June 1914 he moved to Wiener AF , where he soon played his way from the reserve to the first team. After the start of the war, he first moved into the German championship , in whose team he also played, before he had to join the Hungarian army due to his place of birth.

After the war he stayed in Budapest, where he joined the Ferencvárosi Torna Club . In the 1918/19 season he played in an attack series with Alexander Neufeld and Mihály Pataki and reached second place behind MTK Budapest . In the summer of 1919 the FTC took part in a prater tournament in Vienna and several players used this to find accommodation with Viennese clubs. After Gansl was initially associated with the WAF, he finally returned to his home club, where his older brother Jenő had also moved and his club colleague Neufeld should also follow him.

In the following season, the Hakoah fought for the first promotion to the top division, with the fiercest competitor being the Germania Schwechat . The decisive factor was the direct disputes with Germania, both of which were won 2: 1 and thus enabled promotion to first class. The Hakoah scored 107 goals this season, 52 goals from Iszo and another 18 goals from Jenő Gansl. In February 1920 he was called up to the Lower Austrian selection and was used in the 1-1 draw against southern Germany. However, this should remain his only use in an Austrian selection.

The Hakoah was able to establish itself in the top division straight away and after a fourth place in the debut season, a fight for the championship followed in the second year, which was only lost on the last match day against the Vienna sports club . Gansl was the Hakoah's top scorer in these two seasons. His strengths included in particular his penetration, his ball handling and the header game.

In 1923 he left the Hakoah and moved to Romania to Maccabi Chernivtsi . Although the team in the city ​​championship of Chernivtsi could not qualify for the finals for the Romanian championship, Gansl's achievements led to a call-up to the Romanian national football team . So it happened that the player, who never played an A international match neither for his native Hungary nor for Austria, made his only appearance in a national team in October 1923 for Romania. Opponent was Turkey and Gansl scored both goals for the Romanians in a 2-2 draw.

At the end of the season he returned to Austria and joined the Hakoah Graz , where he let his active career end. With a third place in the Styrian regional league, the club achieved the best result in the club's history in Gansl's first year. When the Wiener Hakoah lost all of their strikers after their American tour in 1926, there was brief talk of Gansl's possible return to his home club, but the striker's broken leg prevented this.

After the end of his playing career, Gansl also worked as a coach. During an engagement in Tunis , where he was in charge of the US Tunisienne from 1929 to 1934 , he contracted a serious illness with symptoms of paralysis, to which he succumbed a few years later.
