Mourning for Former Austria Wien Coach: Egon Coordes Passed Away
The German was the coach of Wiener Austria for one season between July 1994 and the end of June 1995. Coordes became well-known primarily as the assistant coach of FC Bayern Munich: alongside Udo Lattek and Jupp Heynckes, he won a total of four German championships in 1985, 1986, 1989, and 1990.
Coordes dies at the age of 80
In 1997, the German record champion brought him back as an assistant to Giovanni Trapattoni. In 2011 and 2012, Coordes worked once more on Heynckes' coaching staff. Coordes' stints as head coach in Germany were less successful; at VfB Stuttgart (1986/87), Hamburger SV (1992), and Hannover 96 (1995/96), he had to leave prematurely. With Austria, he finished fourth in the 1994/95 season, after which there was no agreement regarding his continuation. As a player, he had played 157 Bundesliga matches for Werder Bremen and Stuttgart.
