Karl Schubert (soccer player)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Karl Schubert (born August 23, 1936 ) is a former German football player. From 1963 to 1965 he played 51 games in the GDR Oberliga , the highest division in GDR football , for the company sports association (BSG) Motor Steinach .

Athletic career

Motor Steinach rose in 1958 with the 22-year-old Karl Schubert in the second-rate first GDR league . In the 1959 season, which comprised 26 games, Schubert was the only Steinacher player to be used in every encounter, but the team did not manage to stay up. It was not until 1961/62 (change to the summer-spring game rhythm) that BSG Motor rose again to the second class. There, the Steinachers made a march through to promotion to the GDR league in 1962/63, in which Schubert was involved with 23 of 26 point games. He played mainly as a left defender. This was usually his position in the following two league seasons of Motor Steinach, in which he missed only one game of the 52 point games. Only his teammate Werner Luthardt was more successful with 52 appearances in the major league.

After Motor Steinach was relegated in 1965, Schubert played with the first team for three seasons in the GDR league. He remained a regular player and was used between 1965 and 1968 in the 90 played point games 79 times. After the 1967/68 season, Karl Schubert said goodbye to high-performance sport and played as a recreational footballer for some time with the second team of BSG Motor in the fourth-class district class Suhl. The long-time captain has played over 1200 competitive games in his career, 825 of them in the first team. He was never expelled from the field in his entire career.
