Timeline
Bodo Illgner (born 7 April 1967) is a German former professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper.
Born in Koblenz, Illgner was a product of 1. FC Köln's youth system, and made his debut in the Bundesliga on 22 February 1986 at not yet 19, in a 3–1 away loss against Bayern Munich.
From the 1987–88 season onwards, he became the club's undisputed starter – as successor of Harald Schumacher in both 1.
On 23 September 1987, Illgner made his debut for the West Germany national team in a 1–0 friendly home win against Denmark, and went on to back Eike Immel during UEFA Euro 1988.
During his career he played for 1. FC Köln and Real Madrid, and helped West Germany to the 1990 World Cup, where he became the first goalkeeper to keep a clean sheet in a World Cup final.
At the 1990 FIFA World Cup he, by now the country's first-choice, was in exceptional form, and commanded the backline which consisted of the experienced Klaus Augenthaler, Andreas Brehme, Thomas Berthold, Guido Buchwald and Jürgen Kohler (with Matthias Sammer taking Augenthaler's place at Euro 1992); in the semi-final, he saved a Stuart Pearce shot in the penalty shootout against England, and his team would overcome Argentina in the deciding match, where he would keep a clean sheet in the 1–0 success.
FC Köln and the Germany national team – being voted as Best European Goalkeeper in 1991.
Overall, Illgner appeared 54 times for his country, and also played at the 1994 World Cup, surprisingly retiring after the quarter-final loss against Bulgaria although he was only 27.
Illgner later went on to work as a pundit for Sky Deutschland and English language broadcasts of beIN Sport.
On 30 August 1996, already having started the campaign with Köln, Illgner was signed by Real Madrid, and played 40 La Liga matches in his first year to help the capital side to the national championship conquest.
In the following he lost his place to Santiago Cañizares, but regained it in time to play in the final of the UEFA Champions League against Juventus FC (1–0 win).
In 1999–2000, Illgner was succeeded by 18-year-old Iker Casillas, after which he retired from football altogether.
In April 2013, he was named by Marca as a member of the "Best foreign eleven in Real Madrid's history".
