Rudolf Demetrovics also Demetrovic - Hungarian: Rezsö Deményi (also Demetrovits ), Romanian: Rudolf Demetrovici - (born September 19, 1914 in Paks , Austria-Hungary ; † March 2, 1993 in Wollongong ) was a Romanian football player . He played a total of 225 games in the Romanian Divizia A and the Hungarian Nemzeti Bajnokság . In 1939 and 1940 he won the Romanian championship with Venus Bucharest and the Hungarian championship in 1944 with Nagyváradi AC . In Germany he played for SpVgg Fürth and MTV Ingolstadt after the war .

Career

Demetrovici came in 1933 with Chinezul Timişoara in the Divizia A . When he was promoted he was one of the regular players. He fought with his team to stay up and stayed in the top Romanian league for five years. In 1938 the top club Venus Bucharest signed him . With Venus he was able to win the championships in 1938/39 and 1939/40 . In 1940 he moved to CA Oradea which after the return of former Hungarian territories of Romania to Hungary for the 1941/42 season as Nagyváradi AC was accepted into the first Hungarian league . After the runner-up in 1943, the NAC was the first club that did not come from Budapest to become champions of Hungary in 1943/44 .

After the war he came to Germany where in 1948 he worked with other Hungarians, mainly from Transylvania and Vojvodina - among others at the side of Eintracht Frankfurt player Jenő "Eugen" Csákány and the later SV Waldhof Mannheim coach Árpád Medve in a FC Hungaria ad hoc team without defeat played about half a dozen games in the Frankfurt area - including against Eintracht, FSV and Union Niederrad .

Until the end of the 1947/48 season, he still played for MTV Ingolstadt in the then second-class regional league in Southern Bavaria . The following season he was with SpVgg Fürth with whom he completed seven games in the Oberliga Süd , but was relegated as 15th at the end of the season. He returned to MTV for the 1948/49 season where he stayed until 1950. With the MTV he achieved eighth and sixth place in the meanwhile single-track Bayern League , whereby in 1950 the qualification for the newly created II. Division was missed by just one point.

He then emigrated to Australia where he died in 1993 at the age of 78 and was buried in the Wollongong cemetery at the side of his wife Gisela, who died in 1979 at the age of 60. The two left a son and a daughter.

National team

Demetrovici played eight games for the Romanian national team . He made his debut on January 1, 1935 in the last game of the Balkan Cup in 1934 against Yugoslavia , which was lost 4-0. After that he was not taken into account for almost two years before he was used again on October 4, 1936 in the friendly against Hungary . Again it took almost two years before national coach Constantin Rădulescu relied on him again. On September 6, 1938, he celebrated his comeback against Yugoslavia. In the following years he was a member of the national team and continued to play four international matches until May 24, 1939. After a year break, he came on May 19, 1940 against Hungary for the last time.
