His first match for the national team was a defeat against Czechoslovakia, in a friendly which took place in August 1924. In his third match for the national team, Vogl was named the team captain. Like Ladislau Raffinsky, his teammate at Juventus București, he scored his first and only goal for Romania in the last match before the 1930 FIFA World Cup, against Greece. In 1930, he was called to the Romanian squad which participated at the first FIFA World Cup, in Uruguay.[2] But the chairman of Astra Romana, a company where Vogl and his teammate Ladislau Raffinsky were office workers, interdicted the two players to leave their workplace.[3] At the intervention of Octav Luchide, the two players eventually took the SS Conte Verde ship to Uruguay. In Uruguay, Vogl played in both matches for Romania, against Peru and Uruguay.[4] In 1934, he was picked up for the Romanian squad which participated at the 1934 FIFA World Cup.
