Péter Szabó (football player)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Péter Szabó (born April 13, 1899 - September 21, 1963 ) was a Hungarian football player and football coach .

Career as a player

Péter Szabó played in Hungary at the age of 16 for the first team of MTK Budapest , with which he became Hungarian champions in 1917, 1918 and 1919. When the MTK team made a friendly trip through Europe in the summer of 1919, he stayed abroad and initially played a few games for Wiener AF before moving to 1. FC Nürnberg in October of that year on the mediation of Alfréd Schaffer , who had also emigrated , which he had defeated 3-0 with the MTK on July 22, 1919.

In Nuremberg things went extremely well for the left winger. He played a total of 43 games for the club by 1920 and was instrumental in winning the first German championship in football for 1. FCN. Used in all three final round games in 1920 , he scored two goals, including the goal for the 2-0 final score in the final against SpVgg Fürth .

After only one year in Nuremberg, Szabó moved on to Frankfurt am Main for the local Eintracht , for which he played from 1920 to 1923. He has recorded at least 42 games and at least 23 goals for the Riederwälder from this time.

Other stations as a player were for Szabó, whom the trade journal Fußball once described as “the best left winger in Central Europe in the post-war years around 1920”, Chemnitz BC , Zwickauer SC (1923/24), FC Wacker Munich and in Poland Ruch Chorzów .

Szabó played twelve times for the Hungarian national football team from 1916 to 1919 .

Career as a coach

As a player, Szabó was also a wanderer as a coach. The traditional coaching stations in Germany include VfB Dillingen , Borussia Neunkirchen , Rot-Weiß Frankfurt , Eintracht Frankfurt , FSV Frankfurt , Ulmer FV 94 , Teutonia Munich and BV Osterfeld as well as 1. FC Cologne . He coached the latter club from 1958 to 1959. At Frankfurt Eintracht he was responsible for training twice. First from 1939 to May 25, 1941 and again from March 1942 to 1943 as head of the Frankfurt joint training.
