Jens Schmidt (born April 3, 1963 in Karl-Marx-Stadt ) is a former German soccer goalkeeper who played an international match for the GDR.
Athletic career
Club career
Jens Schmidt began his career at BSG Chemie Karl-Marx-Stadt . Via the BSG Wismut Karl-Marx-Stadt, he switched to the junior division of FC Karl-Marx-Stadt . From FCK, with whom he won the GDR school championship in 1976 , he moved to BSG Wismut Aue in 1979 . There he was, moving up from the junior league team , in the summer of 1982 alongside regular goalkeeper Jörg Weißflog in the league collective . After playing in the 2nd team of BSG Wismut, briefly represented in the second-class league in 1985/86 , Schmidt was also used for the first time in the top division of GDR football in the mid-1980s . The 1.88 meter tall Schmidt made his debut in the league on February 22, 1986 in the game of Wismut Aue against Dynamo Dresden (1: 1). By 1988 he had four league appearances for the violets .
For the 1988/89 season he returned to FC Karl-Marx-Stadt, where he was able to establish himself as a regular goalkeeper. By the time the successor club Chemnitzer FC (CFC) was founded on June 13, 1990, Schmidt had already played 52 GDR league games for FCK . This was followed by another 13 appearances in the NOFV-Oberliga 1990/91 for the CFC . Then the Chemnitz played in the 2nd Bundesliga until 1996 , in which Schmidt came again to 63 missions. After relegation to the regional league in 1996, Schmidt was no longer used in the first team of the CFC and had to end his career in 1997 due to a serious injury that he suffered in the second division game against FSV Zwickau .
At international level, he reached the last sixteen in the UEFA Cup with Karl-Marx-Stadt in 1989/90 , where however against Juventus Turin was the end of the line for him and his teammates. The greatest sporting success for him was reaching the final in the FDGB Cup in 1989, which he lost with FCK against BFC Dynamo with 0: 1. In 1990 he was runner-up in the GDR. In 1993 he failed with the CFC in the DFB Cup only in the semi-finals to Hertha BSC / Amateure (1: 2).
Selection bets
On September 12, 1990, he completed his only international match in the farewell to the GDR selection , which was won 2-0 against Belgium . Since Perry Bräutigam and Dirk Heyne had canceled, the man from Chemnitz was in the starting line-up and was replaced by Jens Adler at the last minute .
He had previously stood between the posts at the last game of the GDR B national team in the spring. In the game won 2-1 against Scotland's B-Elf, ex-international Jürgen Nöldner , editor-in-chief of the trade journal, spoke in the fuwo of "Schmidt radiating calm" .
