Olaf Marschall (born March 19, 1966 in Torgau ) is a former German football player . One of the strengths of the center forward was the header game.

His professional career began in the GDR Oberliga and took him through Austria to the German Bundesliga . With 1. FC Kaiserslautern he became German champion in 1998 . He ended his career in Qatar in 2002 . With the German national team he took part in the 1998 World Cup in France . Before that, he was already active in the GDR team .

In addition to his successes, his career was also marked by numerous injuries.

Club career

Beginning and first successes in the GDR (1972–1990)

Marschall began playing football in 1972 at the local BSG Chemie Torgau . In 1978 the 1.86 m tall center forward was transferred to 1. FC Lokomotive Leipzig . There he made his debut in the GDR league on October 22, 1983, as a 17-year-old against Dynamo Dresden (2-2) , when he was substituted on for Hans Richter by his coach Harro Miller in the 62nd minute . Under Miller's successor, Hans-Ulrich Thomale , he became a regular player, with his goal rate differing greatly from season to season. In 1987 he reached the final of the European Cup Winners' Cup with his club . In 1986 and 1987 he won the FDGB Cup with Leipzig, in 1986 and 1988 he was runner-up in the GDR league with his club.

In Austria with FC Admira Wacker (1990–1993)

In the summer of 1990 Marschall moved to Austria to FC Admira / Wacker . Under the coaches Thomas Parits and Siggi Held , the team reached places six, four and three during this time. Marschall's performance also increased from year to year - in 1992/93 he was the second best striker in the Austrian Bundesliga with 19 goals behind Václav Daněk . In the summer of 1993 Olaf Marschall returned to Germany.

Dynamo Dresden (1993/94)

Marschall moved to his home in Saxony because he signed with SG Dynamo Dresden , which played in the Bundesliga . He succeeded Siegfried "Siggi" Held, who had been hired there as a trainer.

In his first game with Dynamo, Marschall met his former club, which had since been renamed VfB Leipzig. Here he was successful with a three-pack (result 3: 3). This feat of scoring three goals in their Bundesliga debut has only been achieved by six other players besides Marschall so far (2020). He scored a total of 11 goals in 32 games in his first Bundesliga season. He was by far the most successful goalscorer of his team and achieved relegation with Dresden, although the team had been awarded four points by the DFB. For financial reasons, the club sold the striker to runner-up 1. FC Kaiserslautern after just one year .

1. FC Kaiserslautern (1994-2002)

With the commitment of Marschall for 2.8 million marks, the FCK made the most expensive purchase in the club's history to date. In his first year in the Palatinate , he scored seven times in 26 games and finished fourth with his club. In the following season he struggled with injuries and was substituted on eight times in his 19 games (2 goals). Marschall won the DFB-Pokal with Kaiserslautern in 1996 after relegating from the Bundesliga with the Palatine days before. Like almost the entire tribe of the team, Marschall remained loyal to the club after relegation to the second division and scored ten goals in 16 games, where he had to take an almost half-year injury break.

After direct resurgence in 1997 he won with the team of Otto Rehhagel , the German Championship in 1998 , had at Marshall with 21 goals in just 24 games share. That season he was second in the scorers list behind Ulf Kirsten , one goal behind. Again, the bad luck with injuries prevented further missions and a possibly even higher goal rate. At this time at the latest, Marschall became a crowd favorite with the Palatinate. His partner in the storm at this time was often Jürgen Rische , his former teammate at Lok Leipzig. In 1998/99 Olaf Marschall won the award for goal of the year with an overhead kick and scored twelve goals. While Marschall scored nine goals in the preliminary round and Kaiserslautern was in third place, he only managed three goals in the second half. His club slipped out of the Champions League ranks and finally finished in fifth place.

From this point on, the striker could no longer build on his successful times. After three moderate seasons (1999/00 to 2001/02 he scored only seven goals in 47 games) and the loss of the regular place in 2000/01 to the storm duo Miroslav Klose and Vratislav Lokvenc , his contract was no longer expiring at the end of the 2001/02 season extended. In his last season at FCK, he was celebrated once again by the fans enthusiastically when he headed the decisive goal to make it 3-2 in the last minute in the second round of the DFB Cup against SV Waldhof Mannheim .

At the end of his career, Marshal played for half a year at Al-Ittihad in Qatar .

Marschall played at FCK until 2002. After that he worked in several functions in the club, currently (2019) as a scout.
