Timeline

1951

Horst Hrubesch (born 17 April 1951) is a German professional football manager and former player who manages the Germany women national team.

1978

There, he played well enough that in 1978 Hamburger SV (HSV) bought him.

At Hamburg he blossomed into one of the most productive forwards of the Bundesliga and was soon called up for the West German national team.

Hrubesch formed an attacking partnership with fellow HSV player Manfred Kaltz, a right wingback whose crosses Hrubesch often headed in, or headed to teammates to provide them with scoring chances.

1979

Hrubesch won the West German championship three times with Hamburg, in 1979, 1982 and 1983; and his team finished second in the league standings twice, in 1980 and 1982.

In all, he scored 96 goals in 159 matches for the club.

1980

Three years earlier he had been on the team that lost the 1980 European Cup Final against Nottingham Forest, however he was injured shortly before the game and could only feature as a half time substitute.

West Germany's match-winning hero in the UEFA Euro 1980 Final in Rome against Belgium, Hrubesch scored two goals, the second a trademark bullet header, in the 89th minute.

It was a day of redemption for the big Hamburger SV centre forward who a few weeks earlier had hobbled around the field with an ankle injury as his club lost the European Champion Clubs' Cup final to Nottingham Forest FC.

A latecomer to the international scene, Hrubesch had only been called into the West Germany squad after Klaus Fischer broke his leg, and the game against Belgium was only his fifth international appearance.

1982

He was a key member of the West Germany team that made it to the final of the 1982 World Cup, losing to Italy.

His nickname was Das Kopfball-Ungeheuer (the Header Beast) for his heading skills as a centre forward.

Hrubesch played in small clubs until the age of 24 when he was signed by Rot-Weiss Essen.

Hamburg reached one other major European final while Hrubesch was on the team, losing the 1982 UEFA Cup final against IFK Göteborg.

He would play for West Germany 21 times, scoring 6 goals, his last match being the losing 1982 FIFA World Cup final against Italy.

Hrubesch is also famous for having scored the winning penalty which defeated France in the 1982 FIFA World Cup semi-final, after an epic game which was tied 3–3 after extra-time.

Minutes earlier, in the second extra-time period with France leading 3–2, it was Hrubesch who headed a cross from the left wing to Klaus Fischer, enabling his spectacular overhead kick equalizer.

Irish television commentator Jimmy Magee during the shoot-out coined the nickname that made Hrubesch best known in the English-speaking world: "The man they call 'The Monster'."

1983

As a player, Hrubesch won three West German championships with his club side, Hamburger SV, as well as the European Cup title in 1983.

Hrubesch won the European Cup in 1983, captaining the team to a 1–0 win against favourites Juventus in the final in Athens.

Hrubesch left Hamburg after the 1983 season to play for Belgian club Standard Liège.
