Career

STV Horst-Emscher

Rudolf Schmidt went through the youth stations at STV Horst-Emscher . Precisely verifiable, he played in the league eleven of Horster in the 2nd League West from the 1959/60 season . Whether he has already come to two or one use in the 1958/59 relegation season from the Oberliga West , or whether Harry Schmidt (1951-59 with 85 games and 26 goals) has accrued cannot be clarified with any certainty. The young striker scored 19 goals in 30 league games. In the last year of the then first-class football Oberliga West, 1962/63 , he played with the blue-black "Emscher Hussars" under coach Herbert Burdenski in the 2nd League West and occupied with the STV Horst-Emscher at the side of other players like Werner Jestremski , Manfred Otta and Günter Schwertfeger took fourth place . Schmidt had scored seven goals in 28 league games. The attacker played a total of 98 league games for the club in the 2nd West League from 1959 to 1963 and scored 39 goals. The fast and dangerous striker scored 13 goals in 37 league games in the first season of the then second-rate Regionalliga West , 1963/64 . The "Elf" from the Fürstenberg Stadium took 15th place in the table under coach Herbert Burdenski in the 20s season and escaped relegation only because of the better goal quotient compared to SpVgg Herten . With the deployment on May 10, 1964 (38th matchday), in the 0-1 defeat at runner-up Wuppertaler SV , the attacker , who was mostly on the left wing in the World Cup system practiced at the time, ended his activity at STV Horst-Emscher. For the 1964/65 season he moved to the championship runner-up of the pre-season Meidericher SV .

Meidericher SV

In addition to Schmidt, midfielder Heinz van Haaren and striker Raul Tagliari also signed a new contract with the "Zebras". On August 29, 1964 (2nd matchday) he made his debut in the Bundesliga team trained under Rudi Gutendorf . In the 3-1 win in the home game against 1. FC Kaiserslautern , he formed the attack of Meidericher SV together with Horst Gecks , Werner Krämer , Heinz Versteeg and Heinz Höher . Last year's runner-up finished 13th out of 18th place in the table after the 15th matchday with 13:17 points. On March 2, 1965, coach Gutendorf was dismissed; he was followed by Willi Schmidt . Rudolf Schmidt played 23 games and scored four goals. In his second season for the "Zebras", 1965/66 , Schmidt got to know the coaching work of Hermann Eppenhoff and the qualities of the experienced attacker Carl-Heinz Rühl . Since the young players Michael Bella and Rüdiger Mielke could still play in the starting eleven, it was enough to make eighth place in the championship and move into the DFB Cup final . With two goals on May 18, Schmidt played a major role in the home 4: 3 victory in the semi-finals against 1. FC Kaiserslautern and thus in the cup final. With the attacking line-up Rühl, Gecks, Mielke, van Haaren and Schmidt, the Meidericher SV prevailed. On May 28, Meidericher SV ended the season with a 2-2 draw at home against Hannover 96 . Werner “Eia” Krämer, who was previously ill, was used instead of geckos in the half-right connection. Since Schmidt had signed a contract with the final opponent FC Bayern Munich for the new season 1966/67 , he was not used by the coach to avoid a conflict of interests on June 4, 1966, when FC Bayern Munich prevailed 4-2. For Meidericher SV he completed 49 point games in two seasons and scored seven goals.

FC Bayern Munich

The transfer to FC Bayern had come about before the start of the season, but Schmidt did not play a game because he had a fatal accident with his designated teammate Dieter Koulmann , who survived the accident during a training camp at Ammersee, in a traffic accident.
