Football: Hinteregger follows in the footsteps of upholstery

Hinteregger is in the Toschützenlist with eight goals of the season ex aequo with stars like Philippe Coutinho (Bavaria) and Raphael Guerreiro (Dortmund) in 17th place. Hinteregger, who hit twice after corner balls and then stumbled the ball into his own goal to make it 2-5, is also the first player to lose the game after losing a double in the Allianz Arena against Bayern Munich. Despite the two goals, the “kicker” was only rated three.

A defender in the German Bundesliga was as accurate as Hinteregger at the time of the season for the last time in the 1988/89 season: At that time Martin Kree (Bochum) had ten goals and added two more. In addition, there has been no defender in the past three seasons scoring more goals and scoring more goals than Hinteregger: 11 goals, 19 assists, and 88 shots on goal.

Pezzey’s Frankfurt record in sight

The 27-year-old Hinteregger also only needs two goals to catch up with his compatriot Bruno Pezzey, who scored ten goals for Frankfurt in 1980/81. In 1974/75 Karl-Heinz Körbel met just as often. So far, Pezzey and Körbel are the only defenders who have scored double digits for Eintracht in the Bundesliga.

Hinteregger’s chance to score is not a coincidence, as Frankfurt coach Adi Hütter reported. Because his compatriot sometimes shifts extra shifts during training. “On the one hand, it’s hard work, on the other, intuition,” said Hütter about Hinteregger, who is the most dangerous defender of the five major European leagues and also the top scorer in Frankfurt. Team-mate Goncalo Paciencia has only scored seven goals as a striker.
