Wolfgang Andreßen (born December 24, 1950 in Wurzen , Saxony ) is a former German soccer player and coach.
Life
Andreßen has been married since 1970. From 1972 to 1977 he graduated as an engineering economist for business administration. This was followed in 1987 by a one-year course at the University of Education in Leipzig. In June 1989 Andreßen tried with his wife Christina and his son for the first time to flee to the Federal Republic via Hungary, but was arrested when crossing the border and held in detention for a day. At the beginning of October 1989 he tried again with his family and was successful. Since then, the family has lived in Beckum, Westphalia . Here he continued his work as a trainer.
In addition to his coaching activity, Andreßen worked as a business economist from 1991 to 2016, and since 2001 as a complaint manager, in a machine factory in Beckum.
Athletic career
As a soccer player
Andreßen has played a total of 210 league games in the GDR league , 199 of them for the army sports club FC Vorwärts and 11 for BSG Chemie Leipzig. Even as a youth player, the fast full-back was considered extraordinarily talented and according to the standards of the DFV should actually have switched to 1. FC Lok Leipzig . But that didn't happen because Manfred Walter, captain of the championship team at Chemie Leipzig, suggested to him that a Wurzener definitely had to move to Chemie Leipzig. But it was also Walter who suggested that after he was called up to go to FC Vorwärts in Berlin, because there he simply had better opportunities to develop his talent.
The left-back, alternately also called up in the defensive midfield, quickly played his way into the field of vision of the selection coach with consistently good performances. For the youth team of the GDR (U 23), he completed a total of nine international matches. His teammates during this time: Dörner and Häfner (Dynamo Dresden), Gröbner and Fritsche (1. FC Lok Leipzig), Zapf (1. FC Magdeburg). All of them were players who played a dominant role in GDR football.
The fact that Andreßen did not make an A international match was partly due to the strong competition in this position, selection coach Georg Buschner trusted players such as Gerd Kische (Rostock) or Wätzlich (Dynamo Dresden). Nevertheless, Andreßen also played internationally. In 1970/71 FC Vorwärts competed in the European Cup Winners' Cup against FC Bologna and Benfica Lisbon and failed in the quarterfinals at PSV Eindhoven . In 1974 Juventus Turin was the opponent in the UEFA Cup, but the army team were eliminated in the first round (2-1, 0-3).
Andreßen also drew attention to himself when he completed a total of 146 league games in a row between 1971 and 1977. At Chemie Leipzig (1981 to September 1983) he finally let his career end in the top division of the GDR before he worked as a coach.
As a trainer
In September 1983 Andreßen became coach of the youth team of Chemie Leipzig, with which he was represented in the junior league from 1984 to 1985. 1985 to 1987 he trained the second team of Chemie Leipzig. From 1987 to 1989 he was the head coach of Chemie Velten . Here he was district champion in Potsdam and rose to the second highest division, the GDR league.
His coaching stations in the Federal Republic were Teutonia Lippstadt , SpVg Beckum and several lower class clubs.
