rummenigge karl-heinz

The last years of his performances at Bayern, Karl-Heinz acted in an attack on a couple with his brother Michael (they once played together for the national team). In 1984, he was sold for a record amount for the Bundesliga to Inter, where he formed an attacking duo with Altobelli. He spent the last two seasons of his career in Servette, Switzerland, and for some time in the position of libero (!). In the second season-88/89, he returned to such amazing form that he won the competition of scorers. However, the earlier decision to leave football has not changed. Since 1989, he has been working at Bayern, holding the post of vice-president.

A similar story happened at the next World Championship in Mexico. The injured Rummenigge came on as a substitute in the final with Argentina. With him, the Germans scored two goals (Karl-Heinz was the author of one of them), but then they still mis

In 1980, Rummenigge was the undisputed leader of the team that won the European Championship. But he did not become a world champion, despite three attempts. Injuries are partly to blame for this.

As, probably, Helmut Schoen. He appreciated the changes that had taken place in Rummenigge, and on October 6, for the first time, entrusted him with defending the honor of the country. Germany defeated Wales

2-0, and Shen said: "Kalle was our best."

In July 1976, Kalle was drafted into the Bundeswehr. "Kramer was worried about the question: how will service in the army affect me - will it unsettle me or make a man out of me? After I scored three goals for Tennis-Borussia in my first absence, and during the

second I helped Bayern, which was losing 1-4, beat Bochum 6-5, he definitely leaned towards the second opinion."

HE FINISHED HIS CAREER AS A LIBERO

On September 2, 1975, Kalle played for the second German national team. Before the match, Helmut Schoen told him in the locker room: "If you prove yourself, I'll take you to Vienna for the game with Austria." It would be better if he did not say this, because Rummen

igge became nervous, and his "looks" failed.

Karl-Heinz took his toll a year later, when Bayern won the prestigious trophy for the third time in a row. He took part in the victory over Saint-Etienne in Glasgow. Before the game, the doctor Richie Muller, seeing that the young man was terribly nervous, gave him a drink of cognac to calm him down. At the victory banquet, they were left alone in the bar with Schwarzenbeck, when everyone else went to sleep in the rooms. We

drank whiskey and Coke, and when the coke ran out - pur

.Rummenigge's relationship with Lattek's successor, Detmar Kramer, was completely different. An intelligent and correct person who has been as a FIFA coach in 70 countries of the world, Kramer became for him a grandfather, a godfather, a brother, a friend in one person. He liked to show small signs of attention. When Kalle scored a goal for Stuttgart, which saved a 1-1 draw for Bayern, he se

nt him a bottle of champagne as a gif

t.Once there was such a funny case. A slender blond man got into the habit of going to one of the Munich restaurants, who ordered the most expensive dishes for himself, and when it was time to pay, he said: "I am Rummenigge from Bayern. Once, twice: Then the owner of the restaurant reported to the police, who took Karl-Heinz into custody. This quickly became known to Kramer, who did not spare the night to prove that his ward was innocent and some kind of joker was "working" under his name. Rummenigge thanked h

is mentor in his own way - with a bottle of whiske

The president of the Neudecker club is also. On Christmas Eve 1974, he fired Lattek. For some reason, he kicked out almost all the coaches in the pre-Christmas days. This happened before with Zebets, late

r with Kramer and Lant

.

In the championship , things were going badly for the club: Bayern dropped to 13th place in the table, to 14th: The world champions are in the relegation zone: a shame, that's all. Lattek was nervous, broke down, shuffled the composition. Rummenigge often found himself on the bench. At the Hamburg airport, the word "Rummelflige" (translated as something like "annoying fly") flew off Lattek's lips for the first time. So then everyone got used to distorting his last name. "Now I take this word as a joke, but then it really pissed me off," r

ecalls Kalle. - - I stopped trusting Latex."

Three weeks after the operation, Kalle was back on the field. The Champions Cup match with Magdeburg was difficult - Bayern lost 0:2 in the first half. Lattek decided to change the situation by releasing Rummenigge. And this measure worked brilliantly. Th

e result was a 3;2

Bayern went to a commercial match in Rome with Lazio, and on the way in the plane Karl-Heinz had an appendicitis attack. The team doctor Richie Muller found the best specialist in the Eternal City, and Schwan did not spare 10 thousand marks out of the 130 thousand that Bayern received for this match. "Make sure that everything is fine with Kalle," he shovedshoveRichie Muller ran around the bookstores of Rome in an attempt to find something in German.

Bayern went to a commercial match in Rome with Lazio, and on the way in the plane Karl-Heinz had an appendicitis attack. The team doctor Richie Muller found the best specialist in the Eternal City, and Schwan did not spare 10 thousand marks out of the 130 thousand that Bayern received for this match. "Make sure that everything is fine with Kalle," he shoved this money to his medic.

Rummenigge scored his first goal in an official match for Bayern Munich for the Stuttgart Cup, having sent Rainer Zbel's pass under the crossbar since the summer. Laudatory headlines appeared in the newspapers: "Finally, Bayern has a real right edge!", "Drive the expensive (700,000 marks) Wunder, long live the cheap (17,500 marks)

Rummenigge!"

Bayern lost with a bang - 0:6. "Despite this score, I played the match well," Rummenigge recalled. - Maybe everything would have gone differently if I had scored a goal at 0:1. Hadewitz hung from the flank, I was about to strike when I suddenly heard the voice of Wunder: "Pass the ball." This remark confused me. I still struck, but the goalkeeper

parried it."

Before the match at the hotel, seeing him next to Muller, the journalists quipped: "Gerd, since when have you been hanging out with autograph lovers?"You probably don't know this guy. His last name is Rummenigge, remember

," Mueller said.

Hearing the stunning news, Rummenigge, of course, did not close his eyes at night, repeatedly scrolling in his thoughts his virtual martial arts with a player named Fass (eloquent nowhere!), who was supposed to be his first vis-a-vis.

In the control match with Verdol, Bayern won - 12:0. Muller scored 11 (!) goals, Rummenigge got the twelfth. Meanwhile, it's time to open the championship. Bayern played their first match in Offenbach with the local Kickers. It so happened that on the eve of the match, for various reasons, several main players were out of action - Roth, Durnberger, Torstensson. Coach Udo Lattek told Kalle: "Get a good nig

ht's sleep - you're pl

aying tomorrow
