Vinzenz "Gigerl" Dittrich (* February 23, 1893 ; † January 25, 1965 ) was an Austrian football player and football coach who was a regular defender in the national team from 1916 to 1919 and won six championship titles with Rapid .

Club career

Dittrich came in 1913 from the second-class SC Blue Star Vienna to the then Austrian champion Rapid, where he quickly secured a place in the first team. The small, stocky defender played alongside Fritz Brandstätter and was able to celebrate winning the championship in his first season. After a war-related interruption Dittrich belonged from 1916 again the Rapid team to permanent staff where he in the next nine years with a number of different defensive partners such as Willibald Stejskal , Leopold Nitsch or Emil Regnard played, while five more championships and two victories in the ÖFB Cup win could.

In 1925 he left the green and whites and strengthened the defensive of the first division promoted ASV Hertha Vienna . The favorites could not hold themselves in the league and were immediately relegated. Dittrich stayed in the II. League with the club and was able to achieve immediate promotion. This time the team was able to stay in the top division for three years before moving back to the lower house in 1930 and Dittrich then ending his active career.

National team

In October 1913 Dittrich ran for the first time for the national team when they lost 3: 4 to Hungary in Budapest , with the defender contributing a goal from a penalty. In the years from 1916 to 1919 he was part of the regular formation and mostly played alongside Alexander Popovich , due to the war almost all of these international matches took place against Hungary. After that he was increasingly ousted from the team by the up-and-coming Richard Beer and Josef Blum and was rarely used, most recently in August 1923 against Finland . He came to a total of 16 missions.

Coaching career

After the end of his active time, Dittrich hit a coaching career in 1930 and initially worked for the Lithuanian Football Association, where he won the Baltic Cup with the national team . After his return he took over the coaching position at SC Hakoah Vienna . After the team had beaten Olympique Marseille on a tour of France in December 1932 , the southern French first recruited the Hungarian star striker from Vienna József Eisenhoffer and then signed Dittrich in the summer of 1933. He also brought the two Austrian national players Leopold Drucker and Josef Chloupek to Marseille and was able to achieve third place in the championship, just one point behind the winner FC Sète . In the following season things went less well in the championship, but Dittrich celebrated victory in the French Cup with a 3-0 goodbye against Stade Rennais UC .

After his time in Marseille he was still in charge of DSV Saaz and FC Nordstern Basel from 1935 before he returned to France in 1937 and succeeded Franz Weselik as coach at FC Mulhouse . In 1938 he took over the coaching position at Hamborn 07 . In the autumn of 1940 he was in charge of Vienna's second division club SC Helfort before taking over the coaching position at ŠK Bratislava at the end of the year , where he won the Slovak championship.

After the Second World War Dittrich was a coach at the second division club 1. Schwechater SC , worked in Luxembourg, took over the coaching position at AC Parma for a short time and looked after the 1. Wiener Neustädter SC from 1947 to 1949 . In the 1950s he was an association trainer in Syria and Lebanon.
