Jürgen Nöldner

A midfielder, Nöldner began his senior career in 1959 with ASK Vorwärts Berlin. He was to spend his entire career with the army side, staying with the club when it moved to Frankfurt/Oder in 1971. He did not like commuting between Berlin and Frankfurt/Oder and ended his career in late 1972, aged 31. During this time he was East German champion five times, and won the Cup in 1970. He also played internationally for East Germany, winning 30 caps and scoring 16 goals, including a first-minute goal against Austria which was the fastest in the national team's history. He was part of the East German Olympic squad that represented the United German team at the Tokyo Olympic Games in 1964, winning the bronze medal. In 1966 Nöldner was voted East German Footballer of the Year, and such was his reputation that he was nicknamed "the Puskás of the DDR".
