career

Clubs, 1938 to 1961

Miltz learned the soccer game in the youth of TuS Neuendorf (today: TuS Koblenz ) with the blue-blacks. His father was a master butcher and chairman of the TuS association. In the southwest, Neuendorf played after the end of World War II via the Landesliga Südwest in the Oberliga Südwest - Gruppe Nord for the 1946/47 round. It comprised the French zone of occupation and goes down in history as the zone league. The Saar, the Palatinate and the Moselle region are once again considered a unit - at least in terms of football. Neuendorf is in seventh place, 1. FC Kaiserslautern wins the championship and repeats the title win in the southwest up to 1951 in a row. In the 1947/48 round, TuS Neuendorf wins the qualifying games for the 2nd Southwest German representative against FV Offenburg and FC Rastatt 04 and thus takes part in the final round of the 1948 German soccer championship . In the preliminary round, on July 18, 1948, a surprising 2-1 win was achieved against the clearly favored Hamburger SV in Dortmund. The 19-year-old Miltz scored both goals. Rudi Gutendorf acts as right winger , "Köbes" plays on half right. In the semifinals on July 25th in Wuppertal, however, the team of captain Jupp Gauchel had no chance against the southwest champion Kaiserslautern in the clear 1: 5 defeat. In the round of 1949/50, the TuS repeated through qualifying games over the Freiburg FC and Wormatia Worms, the renewed entry into the final round of the German football championship. In the preliminary round meeting on May 21, 1950 in Hanover, the players around goalkeeper Helmut Jahn , Josef "Jupp" Gauchel and Jakob Miltz clearly lost 4-0 against FC St. Pauli Hamburg. When in 1952, 1953 and 1956 the Neuendörfer were able to bring the runner-up to Koblenz, only the champions from the southwest were allowed to take part in the finals. In the summer of 1957, Miltz moved to Hanover for further training and joined Hanover 96 . He only played 12 games in Lower Saxony and scored six goals. After the end of the round in 1957/58 he returned to his native Southwest and tried it at 1. FC Kaiserslautern. Since he couldn't get by, he only played seven games in 1958/59 for Kaiserslautern. He returned to the Oberliga relegated TuS Neuendorf, rose directly in the 1959/60 round to the Oberliga Südwest again and ended his career in 11th place after the 1960/61 season with 19 games and five goals. He played his last game in the league on February 19, 1961 in the 2: 3 home defeat against 1. FC Kaiserslautern. In the 75th minute of the game he succeeded in making it 2-2. Jakob Miltz played 288 league games for TuS Neuendorf from 1946 to 1961, scoring 81 goals.

Selection games / national soccer team, 1950 to 1956

On November 11, 1950, the 22-year-old Miltz made his debut in the Southwest team at the representative game against southern Germany in Ludwigshafen. In the 2-2 draw, he played on the right runner position. In 1951, 1953 and 1954 three more Southwest selection games followed. National coach Josef Herberger invited the dynamic and powerful outside runner and half- forward to a national team course from November 22 to 29, 1954 at the Hessian sports school Grünberg after the 1954 World Cup in Switzerland. After the course he was nominated for the 15-man squad for the international match on December 1, 1954 in London against England. But it is not yet being used. Two weeks later, on December 19 in Lisbon, during the game against Portugal, the man from Neuendorf made his debut on half-right in the national team. In 1955 another game for the southwest team follows. In the test match on March 7, 1956 in Hamburg, a DFB selection against Saarland, he is checked again by the national coach for the national team. The result was the use on May 31, 1956 in the B national team in the 5-2 victory in Barcelona against Spain. Used on half right, he scored a goal. Two more appointments followed on September 15 and November 21 in the B-Elf against the Soviet Union in Moscow and Switzerland in Zurich. Four days after Zurich, he played his second and last international match on November 25, 1956 in Dublin against Ireland in a 3-0 defeat. On December 30, 1956, he was also used for the last time in the southwest selection in the game against West Germany, which was won 3-1 goals.
