“Rudi” Noack came from Harburg's “Mopsberg” on what was then Elisenstrasse (today: Baererstrasse), where he grew up as a street footballer with the neighboring children and later HSV teammates Richard Dörfel and Friedo Dörfel . He began as a boy from the working class - his father was a worker at the Phoenix Gummiwerke - as a youth player at the ATSB club Herta 09 Harburg . He later moved to lawn sport Harburg and in 1931 to SV Harburg . For him he made his debut with five goals to 6: 4 against Victoria in the northern championship and the extraordinary talent was henceforth the talk of the town and of course also a topic at Rothenbaum. In 1931 the ex-seaman went to HSV, where Richard Dörfel from Viktoria Harburg had also changed. Noack played an outstanding round in the 1931/32 season and scored 36 goals in 18 league games and HSV was champions in the Oberliga Nord with 34: 2 points and then won the North German championship. In the two games against Eimsbütteler TV (8: 2) on October 18, 1931 and FC St. Pauli (7: 0) on January 31, 1932, he distinguished himself as a four-time goalscorer. Against VfL Benrath (3: 1) and FC Schalke 04 (2: 4) he played his first two of a total of 23 finals (16 goals) in the German soccer championship for HSV in May 1932 . In June 1932, the unemployed joined the CfR Cologne with his friend Richard Dörfel . They returned in November 1932, but the West German Game Association (WSV) banned the two ex-Cologne residents until April 1933. The North German Game Association (NSV) released Dörfel early, so that Richard Dörfel again from November 27th 1932 could play point games for HSV; Noack, on the other hand, remained banned until November 1933 and was only allowed to appear again for the Rothosen after a pardon at the start of the 1933/34 season.

From 1931 to 1942 and in the 1944/45 season he was a member of Hamburger SV and in the meantime played for First Vienna FC from 1942 to 1944 . In April 1940 he was excluded from the National Socialist Reichsbund for physical exercises because of unspecified personal misconduct and he was only able to return to the HSV team during the 1941/42 season. In the 1939/40 season, Noack only made three league appearances in which he scored two goals and in 1940/41 he was banned for the entire round.

In the Hamburg team, in which he played as a half-left striker and mostly took on the role of playmaker , he fell through wit and perfect technique, as a filigree footballer, as the Hamburg audience had not yet seen him, albeit not with one has a streamlined character and has a striking, thick, dark head of hair, which has earned him the nickname "the black one". In the Fußball Lexikon Hamburg , a statement by Ernst Happel is quoted, who had seen him as a guest player at Vienna Wien several times during the war: "Except for Matthias Sindelar , Austria's most famous footballer of all time, he was better than the stars of the Vienna wonder team ." Book about the North German Football Association from 2005 is noted on Noack: "In terms of play, he was a representative of typical southern football and the greatest footballer and technician who was ever at HSV," said journalist Günther Rackow.

During the Second World War he rarely played for Hamburger SV. As war guest players - together with his former Hamburg team-mate Richard Dörfel - he won on 31 October 1943 in Stuttgart with the First Vienna FC to Tschammerpokal against the Air Force Sports Club Hamburg with 3: 2 aet. Noack scored on the side of Richard Dörfel and Karl Decker two goals, including the winning goal in the 113th minute of extra time to make it 3-2. Four months earlier, he finished fourth with this team in the final round of the German Championship. In total, he played six games with three goals for Vienna in the two finals in 1943 and 1944.

During his membership at HSV, he played 178 championship and 15 cup games and scored a total of 233 goals. According to the statistics of Prüß and Irle , Noack played his last three association games for HSV in November 1944 in the Hamburg district against FC St. Pauli (6: 2), Victoria Hamburg (1: 1) and Barmbecker SG (11: 1) at the side of his teammates Walter Warning , Erwin Seeler , Esegel Melkonian and Rudi Greifenberg.

National team and selection of Nordmark

Noack made three appearances for the senior national team and scored one goal. He made his debut on January 14, 1934 in Frankfurt am Main in a 3-1 victory over the Hungarian national team . Noack made his debut as well as center forward Edmund Conen . It was the last game before the World Cup qualification against Luxembourg on March 11th. He took part - together with Hans Schwartz from SC Victoria Hamburg - in the world championship held in Italy from May 27 to June 10, 1934 and was only used on June 3 in the semi-final game against the Czechoslovak national team, which was lost 3-1 ; he managed to score a 1-1 equalizer in the 62nd minute. He played his last international match for the DFB on May 2, 1937 in Zurich in a 1-0 victory over the Swiss national team . The German attack ran in Zurich with the occupation of Ernst Lehner , Fritz Szepan , Jakob Eckert , Noack and Adolf Urban . 14 days later, on May 16, the German team celebrated an 8-0 win against Denmark in Breslau and the myth of the " Breslau team " was born. Their attack line-up consisted of Lehner, Rudolf Gellesch , Otto Siffling , Szepan and Urban.

Noack, who was regarded as easily excitable and stubborn, could have advanced to a favorite player of the Reich trainers Otto Nerz and Josef Herberger due to his non-sporting lifestyle as a non-smoker and anti-alcoholic , but this was not the case. Noack's former HSV colleague Rudolf Greifenberg saw other causes behind the constant disregard and the ongoing quarrels about the popular player and HSV crowd favorite: “Rudi was a justice fanatic, he didn't put up with anything and Herberger also gave his opinion. Maybe the bans were political. Neither of us were communists, but against the Nazis, we had the reputation. "

With the district selection Nordmark he won the final of the Reichsbund Cup on March 6, 1938 in Erfurt 3-1 against the southwest team . The successful north was attacked with Wilhelm Ahlers , Herbert Panse , Werner Höffmann , Noack and Gustav Carstens . Noack had brought his team 1-0 lead in the second half. In the 1941/42 season he led the Nordmark selection with wins against Lower Silesia (3: 0), Cologne / Aachen (6: 0) and after a 4: 1 against Brandenburg in the replay in the semifinals on September 27, 1942 in Hamburg again Finale, where he did not play in November 1942. Overall, he is listed in the statistics with 16 regional selection games with 12 goals.

Life and fate in war

Like his father, Noack worked for the Phoenix Gummiwerke in Harburg. In the meantime he went to sea and got a tattoo on his upper arm . Because of this tattoo, he was never allowed to roll up his sleeves enough to show them; it should also have been a disadvantage in his nomination for the senior national team .

He was drafted for military service as a soldier and stationed as an anti-aircraft helper in Mooswerder. After the transfer of his HSV club colleague Richard Dörfel, Noack was posted to Vienna in October 1942 . He experienced the end of the Second World War in Bohemia . The corporal was taken prisoner by the Soviets and died there on June 30, 1947 in Rakitianka .
