Athletic career

BSG and club stations

Jürgen Bähringer's career began at BSG Progress Greiz . In the 1971/72 season he appeared for the first time nationally in the second-rate league for his home BSG .

In 1972 he moved to BSG Motor Werdau , and that same season he was delegated to the top division of the Karl-Marx-Stadt district , FC Karl-Marx-Stadt. At FCK, Bähringer quickly became a regular as a striker. When he made his first league debut in March 1973 against BFC Dynamo , he was already on the scorers list.

Between 1973 and 1988 he played 350 league games for the Saxons and scored 57 goals. Between autumn 1974 and spring 1976 his first division career was interrupted when he was drafted into the National People's Army .

With the FCK Bähringer, who later moved into the defense, won no titles. The greatest success at club level was reaching the FDGB Cup final in 1982/83 , in which captain Bähringer and his team lost 4-0 to the favored 1. FC Magdeburg .

Selection bets

In the autumn of 1973 Bähringer was appointed to the squad of the GDR junior national team. He was used in three international matches, including the European Championship qualifier GDR against Albania. In the 6-0 victory of the East Germans in the Ernst-Thälmann Stadium in Potsdam , he scored his only goal for the U-23. In 1975, during his time in the NVA, he stayed with the East German army selection at the SKDA tournament in Somalia and took 2nd place with his team.

On May 7, 1980, Bähringer had his only appearance in an international match for the GDR national team in the 2-2 draw against the USSR . On that day, this team corresponded to the provisional squad of coach Rudolf Krause for the Olympic football tournament that will be held in the Soviet capital from the end of July . At the 1980 Olympic Games , Bähringer won the silver medal with the Olympic selection . After he had played 18 games in a row for the newly formed representation of the winner of Montreal in 1979 and 1980, the Karl-Marx-Städter was missing in the semi-finals and in the final of the soccer tournament of the Moscow Summer Games . With his teammates he was awarded the Patriotic Order of Merit in bronze a little later .

Further career

After completing his competitive sports career, he returned to his hometown in 1988 to join the Greiz industrial sports club that was established that summer . After the reunification in the GDR , he was responsible for his hometown club, which was renamed first FC, then 1. FC Greiz until 1997 as a player-coach.

Trivia

In the history of the GDR league, a goal by Bähringer, who was known for his shooting strength, went down on the 21st matchday of the 1984/85 season. With a hit from 42 meters, as measurements based on video recordings retrospectively showed against SG Dynamo Dresden , he surprised their goalkeeper Bernd Jakubowski .

At the beginning of 2006 Jürgen Bähringer was made honorary captain by Chemnitzer FC .
