Reinhard Fabisch (born August 19, 1950 in Schwerte ; † July 12, 2008 in Münster , Westphalia ) was a German soccer player and soccer coach .

Career

Reinhard Fabisch, always a fan of Borussia, even though Franz Beckenbauer was his idol, was part of the professional squad of Borussia Dortmund from 1969 to 1971 , but did not appear in competitive games. Fabisch later trained as a soccer teacher.

In 1984 and 1985 he was assistant coach at Tennis Borussia Berlin and SG Union Solingen . Then began an international career in which he mainly coached teams in Africa and the Arab region. He was also the national coach of Nepal and Barbados , as well as the U18 team of Malta. He also held the position of technical director at the Guatemalan Football Association from 2003 to 2004 .

His greatest successes are reaching the final of the All-Africa Games in 1987, where Kenya lost 1-0 to Egypt in the final after extra time, and reaching the finals at the 2001 CECAFA Cup , an East and Central African championship, where Kenya won 1 : 2 lost to Ethiopia. Fabisch is also listed as a coach of Fanja SC for 1987–1988 , which won the Oman championship during the same period. Most recently, Fabisch qualified with Benin for the Africa Cup of 2008 , only the country's second participation in the finals. Fabisch himself named the advance with Zimbabwe as his greatest success - which in that phase played a series of 12 games without defeat and where, among other things, goalkeeper Bruce Grobbelaar played, who won the European Cup of national champions with Liverpool FC in 1984 - into the second Round of qualification for the 1994 World Cup . Connected with this was his biggest disappointment: in the last game a draw would have been enough for the sensational qualification for the finals in the USA, but Zimbabwe lost 3-1 in Cameroon. After the game, the disappointed Fabisch threw the Gambian referee Alhagi Faye with a wad of money and accused him of bribery. He was banned from FIFA for one year for grossly unsporting behavior. Fabisch saw this as his most embarrassing moment.

In 2000 he married the Zimbabwean record holder in the 100 meter hurdles Chawada Kachidza . With her he had a son, Jonah Fabisch (born August 13, 2001 in Nairobi ), who later joined the youth team of Hamburger SV and announced there that he wanted to play for the national team of Zimbabwe.

In July 2008, Fabisch succumbed to cancer. It is said that in 2011, his wife initiated the building of a professional football academy in honor of her husband.
