Yves Eigenrauch (born April 24, 1971 in Minden ) is a former German soccer player .

Career

Club soccer

Eigenrauch attended the Ratsgymnasium Minden , wanted to play handball first, but then first took part in some tournaments with the school soccer team. Then he started his career with Arminia Bielefeld . In the 1990s he played a central role as a defender in the line-up of FC Schalke 04 , for which he played a total of 229 Bundesliga games from 1991 to 2002 and in which he scored three goals. With this club he also won the UEFA Cup in 1997 and the DFB Cup in 2001 and 2002 . During this time he also did his military service , which he did with the sports promotion group of the Bundeswehr . In 2002 he ended his career due to cartilage damage.

Self-smoke has a remarkable fair play record for a defender. In his entire Bundesliga time he received only 15 warnings ( yellow cards ), no expulsion ( red card ) and was never suspended.

National team

Eigenrauch was invited to viewing courses in 1994 and 1996. In March 1998, national coach Berti Vogts appointed him to the German national team for the international matches against Brazil and Nigeria . Self-smoke, however, was not used in the game against Brazil in the Gottlieb Daimler Stadium in Stuttgart and against Nigeria. Vogts' successor, Erich Ribbeck , then invited Eigenrauch to the European Championship qualifiers in Turkey and Moldova. Here, too, he was not used.

After the career

After his sporting career, Eigenrauch worked in the stadium operating company of FC Schalke 04. He was also a columnist for ARD and taz . In the feature film Football is Our Life from 2000, which revolves around fans of FC Schalke, he played himself. Most recently, Yves Eigenrauch worked in public relations at a children's and youth theater (Consol Theater Gelsenkirchen) and now devotes his time to his family and various charitable projects such as the Gelsenkirchen housing project "Pelikan - Cross-Generational Living". In 2000, the Hamburg music group Tomte sang the audience favorite from Schalke in their song Yves, how can you stand it? .

Eigenrauch has a child from his first marriage and lives with his family and another child from this relationship in Herne and now describes the Ruhr area as his home. He made this clear in a commercial that WDR produced with its own smoke.
