Friedrich Koncilia (born 25 February 1948) is an Austrian former professional football who played as a goalkeeper.

Club career

Born in Klagenfurt, Koncilia made his debut for local side Austria Klagenfurt at 17, moving to SV Wattens in 1969. After two seasons there he enjoyed his longest and most successful spell at FC Wacker Innsbruck, staying there for eight years (teammates included his younger brother Peter, a midfielder). He moved abroad to R.S.C. Anderlecht of Belgium, only to return to Austria after a mere eight games and finished his career at Austria Wien. A back injury forced him to retire at 37.

International career

He made his debut for Austria in a September 1970 friendly match against Hungary and was a participant at the 1978 FIFA World Cup and at the 1982 FIFA World Cup.[1] He earned 84 caps which makes him Austria's fifth most capped player of all-time (with Bruno Pezzey)[2] His last international was a May 1985 World Cup qualification match against Cyprus.
