Club career

edit

Emerich Vogl was born on 12 August 1905 in Temesvár, Austria-Hungary, growing up in the Mehala neighborhood, then playing as a youth for local club, Chinezul between 1921 and 1922.[1][3][4] In 1922, at age 17, Vogl made his debut for the senior team and until 1924 he played on different positions, before settling as a central midfielder.[3] He played for Chinezul until 1929, winning five Divizia A titles with them, at the one from the 1925–26 season scoring 15 goals in the regional and national championship together, being the team's second top-goalscorer after Augustin Semler who scored 41.[1][5][6] Around this time he was considered by the press to be the best central midfielder in Europe, being appreciated for his technical abilities and his physical condition, at one point winning a local 800 metres running competition.[3]

In 1929, together with his teammate Ladislau Raffinsky he moved to Juventus București.[1][3][6] Vogl made his debut for his new team under coach Gyula Feldmann on 13 October in a 1–0 home victory with Venus București from the regional championship, scoring his first goal on 3 November in a 1–0 away win over Maccabi București.[7] Juventus won the regional championship, thus qualifying for the national championship which was won after a 3–0 victory in the final against Gloria Arad, Vogl being used by coaches Feldmann and György Hlavay in all of the 14 matches from the campaign, having one goal scored.[1][3][5][6][8] In the following seven years, Vogl appeared regularly for the team, helping it gain promotion to Divizia A by the end of the 1932–33 season, also having two spells as a player-coach, the highlights of this period being a third place in the 1935–36 season and reaching two times in a row the Cupa României semi-finals.[1][9][10][11][12][13][14][15]

International career

edit

Emerich Vogl played 29 games and scored one goal at international level for Romania.[3][6][16] He made his debut on 31 August 1924 under coach Teofil Morariu in a away friendly against Czechoslovakia which ended with a 4–1 loss.[3][6][16][17] In his third match for the national team, Vogl was named the team captain in a 3–1 away win in a friendly over Turkey.[3][16] He scored his first and only goal at international level in a 8–1 win with Greece from the successful 1929–31 Balkan Cup.[3][6][16][18][19] He was selected by coach Constantin Rădulescu to be part of the squad for the 1930 World Cup but the chairman of Astra Română, a company where Vogl and his teammate Ladislau Raffinsky were office workers, interdicted the two players to leave their workplace, eventually after the Romanian Football Federation's secretary Octav Luchide went to the company with a letter of the Romanian squad that should be at the final tournament which was signed by King Carol II, they were allowed to participate.[3][6][20] Vogl played in both Group 3 matches at that World Cup, a 3–1 win over Peru and a 4–0 loss to hosts and eventual world champions Uruguay.[16] Afterwards he helped the team win two competitions, the 1933 Balkan Cup where he appeared in all three matches and the 1931–34 Central European Cup for Amateurs where he played five games.[16][21][22] Vogl played two games at the successful 1934 World Cup qualifiers, being selected by coaches Josef Uridil and Rădulescu to be part of the squad at the final tournament where he played and captained the team for the last time in a first round exit as they were defeated with 2–1 by eventual finalists, Czechoslovakia.[3][16]
