Athletic career

Club career

From 1954 Klaus Sammer began to play football at BSG Stahl in Gröditz, North Saxony. After finishing school, he completed an apprenticeship as a lathe operator. At the beginning of the 1962/63 season, he moved to SC Einheit Dresden at the age of 19 , which had just been relegated from the GDR Oberliga . In the following years, Einheit tried in vain to get promoted again, and when promotion was missed in the 1964/65 season, but local rivals Dynamo Dresden was in acute danger of relegation three game days before the top division final, the 1.91 meter tall Sammer changed joined Dynamo in May 1965 with his club colleague Klaus Engels , where he helped to keep the league. The action was not without controversy, since at that time the majority of the Dresden football supporters stood for the SC unit.

Until the end of his active career in 1975, Sammer stayed with Dynamo and played there, alternately as a defender or as a midfielder, 183 top division games (27 goals) and 26 games (2 goals) in the second-highest division ( GDR league ). With Dynamo Dresden, Sammer became GDR soccer champions in 1971 and 1973 and won the GDR soccer cup in 1971 . Klaus Sammer scored two goals in 19 European Cup games. Sammer was adopted on February 14, 1976 before the league game Dynamo Dresden - Sachsenring Zwickau from the Dresden league team and the national team. In this season 1975/76 he appeared in the second representation of the Dresden Dynamos for the last time in the league as an active footballer in appearance.

Selection bets

Sammer made his debut in the national soccer team of the GDR on November 11, 1970 against the Netherlands , who were defeated 1-0 in a European Championship qualifier at the Dynamo Stadium in Dresden . The Saxon was also part of the team that qualified for the World Cup in Germany - but at the 1974 tournament was no longer part of the East German team. Selection coach Georg Buschner used him on September 26, 1973 for the 17th and last time in the GDR national soccer team.

Coaching career

After the end of his career, Sammer, who had acquired a diploma as a sports teacher, trained his hometown club SG Dynamo Dresden from 1983, which he led to two FDGB Cup victories. Both in the 1983/84 season (2: 1) and in the 1984/1985 (3: 2) season, the major league series champions, the Berlin FC Dynamo , were defeated in the Berlin stadium of the world youth and prevented from doing the national double . A 3-7 defeat against Bayer 05 Uerdingen in the quarter-final second leg of the European Cup Winners' Cup on March 19, 1986 (also known as the Wunder von der Grotenburg ), together with the escape of Dynamo player Frank Lippmann, triggered Sammer's death after the 1985 season / 1986 had to resign as head coach and was replaced by Eduard Geyer . Sammer had actually not wanted to field Lippmann for disciplinary reasons, but was forced to do so because the MfS promised greater sporting success from a line-up by Lippmann, who had already scored four goals in the current competition before the second leg. He was then delegated to Dynamo Meißen as a youth coach.

Klaus Sammer took over from July 1992 to April 1993 again - he is one of six coaches at Dynamo Dresden with several terms in office - for a short time as head coach of 1. FC Dynamo Dresden, which is now playing in the Bundesliga , and then worked in a variety of functions for the DFB .
