Wolfgang Sidka (born May 26, 1954 in Lengerich ) is a German soccer coach and former soccer player .
player
As a midfielder, he played in the first and second Bundesliga at Hertha BSC (1971–1980), TSV 1860 Munich (1980–1982) and Werder Bremen (1982–1987).
Wolfgang Sidka made his Bundesliga debut on the 33rd match day, the 1971/72 season , when almost the entire team from Hertha BSC was suspended due to the Bundesliga scandal . He was also used on the 34th matchday, but was then not used in the following two years. It was not until the 1974/75 season that he made his breakthrough as a regular player in the Bundesliga. By the end of the 1979/80 season , Sidka had played 184 Bundesliga games for Hertha BSC and scored 24 goals. In 1974/75 he took second place in the Bundesliga with Hertha BSC, and in 1977/78 the team took third place. In 1977 and 1979 Sidka was in the cup final with Hertha, but left the place as a loser.
Before the 1980/81 season he moved to TSV 1860 Munich, for whom he played in 34 Bundesliga games and scored three goals. However, the team was relegated from the Bundesliga. In the following second division season Sidka scored 15 goals in 37 games; Nevertheless, the Munich missed the rise. The heavily indebted club even had to give up its license for the second division. Sidka then moved to Bremen; from 1982/83 to 1985/86 he had 115 Bundesliga appearances there and scored 17 goals. With Werder he reached second place in 1983, 1985 and 1986, and in 1984 the team reached fifth place.
His best-known game is the second leg in the UEFA Cup with Werder Bremen on October 3, 1984 against RSC Anderlecht . Werder lost the first leg in Belgium 0-1. Sidka initially scored both goals for a 2-0 lead, which Bremen would have been enough to win the comparison with the Belgian team. Subsequently, however, he underwent an own goal, whereby his club was eliminated from the competition. Anderlecht qualified for the next round with the same goal difference due to the away goal rule .
In total, Wolfgang Sidka played in 333 Bundesliga games and scored 44 goals.
Trainer
Sidka has been working as a trainer since 1987. In Germany he first coached tennis Borussia Berlin (1987/88, 1993/94 with the DFB Cup semi-finals) and VfB Oldenburg (1989-1993), which he sensationally moved from the Oberliga Nord to the 2nd Bundesliga and then promoted to the Bundesliga just missed a hit and point. Sidka played numerous games of this time as a player- coach. He then went to Arminia Bielefeld (1994) and FC Oberneuland (1995-1997) with league promotion. In 1997, he returned to Werder Bremen as a coach. First as co-coach and then from August 1997 as head coach in the Bundesliga. He was the first coach since Otto Rehhagel , who led SV Werder back into the European Cup in the summer of 1998. On the international stage, Sidkas passed away at Werder in late autumn 1998, although they scored an astonishing 1: 1 against France's star ensemble Olympique Marseille with three world champions. But because Werder was suddenly last in the Bundesliga after eight match days and an injury misery, Sidka had to leave. Aílton , discovered ten days earlier by Sidka in Brazil, was more or less his farewell present to Werder. He then took over from Gerd-Volker Schock to VfL Osnabrueck for two relegation matches to move up to the Second Bundesliga. After the missed promotion, Sidka led VfL to the top of the table in the Regionalliga Nord in the 1999/2000 season, but after 22 matchdays he was replaced by Lothar Gans .
After 155 games as a coach in the local national leagues, Sidka started his international career in the Arab region in 2000. He took over the post of national coach for Bahrain on the FIFA world rankings 138. He led Bahrain to the Arab runner-up in 2002 and landed in the election for Asia's Coach of the Year in third place. From 2003 to 2005 he was in charge of the Al-Arabi team in Qatar with world stars like Stefan Effenberg and Gabriel Batistuta . In 2004 he was voted Coach of the Year in Qatar. In 2005 Sidka returned to Bahrain as national coach, parallel to his work as a club coach. But shortly after the end of the direct World Cup qualification, they parted ways - after all, after jumping to world number 50. Without him, Bahrain then also missed the last-minute ticket for the 2006 World Cup against Trinidad and Tobago .
From April 6, 2006 to June 30, 2006 Sidka was the trainer of MSV Neuruppin . From December 2006 to June 2007 he coached the top team of Al-Gharafa in Qatar , with whom he became runner-up and cup finalist in May 2007.
In his home country he has been supporting the Berlin Sport Club since September 2007 . He also helped out as a trainer in order to then install his former assistant trainer Edmund Stöhr .
From November 2008 Sidka trained again in Bremen. At the regional league club FC Oberneuland, he took over the coaching position of Mike Barten, who was previously on leave (who then moved to Hansa Rostock as assistant coach from Dieter Eilts ). In January 2009 he already ended his engagement in Oberneuland, as he was allegedly unable to enforce his professional values in this environment.
On August 9, 2010 Sidka signed a contract with the Iraqi Football Association . He took over the country's national team . After a year, the football association decided not to renew the contract.
