Klaus Augenthaler
Klaus "Auge" Augenthaler (born 26 September 1957) is a German former professional football player and manager. A defender, he won seven Bundesliga titles in his 15-year club career with Bayern Munich. He also represented the West Germany national team, winning the FIFA World Cup in 1990.
In 2005, Augenthaler was named as a member of the greatest Bayern Munich XI in the club's history.
Augenthaler was born in Fürstenzell, Bavaria, West Germany. He played generally in the position of centre-back or, especially in the later part of his career, as a sweeper.
Augenthaler joined Bayern Munich in 1975 and made his Bundesliga debut for the club in 1977, scoring in a 3-0 win over Borussia Dortmund. He won the Bundesliga for the first time in 1980, and Bayern retained the title in 1981. Augenthaler played for Bayern in 1982 European Cup final against Aston Villa and came close to scoring twice, but Bayern ultimately lost 1-0, becoming the first ever Bayern team to lose a final.
In 1984 Augenthaler became Bayern captain, which he would remain until his retirement in 1991. Bayern won the league again in his first season as captain and Augenthaler, playing as a libero, was one of the league's best defensive players in a Bayern defence that conceded fewer than any other team.
In November 1985 Augenthaler committed one of the most infamous fouls in Bundesliga history, injuring Werder Bremen's star player Rudi Völler with a tackle which badly injured Völler and forced him to miss almost the entire remainder of the season. Augenthaler received death threats from Bremen fans after the incident and was booed by fans of other clubs around the country.
Bayern lost another European Cup final in 1986–87, though Augenthaler was suspended for the final after being sent off for a slap on Hugo Sánchez in the semi-final.
In 1989, Augenthaler scored a shot from the halfway line against Eintracht Frankfurt goalkeeper Uli Stein; it was awarded Sportschau's goal of the year award, and was later named the goal of the century.
