Players who have scored a hat-trick

[edit]

50 players have scored at least three goals in at least one match, 16 of whom have done so in at least two matches. Only six players scored three or more goals in their first match. Otto Dumke was the only of them get no further goals. Two other players also scored only these goals, including Julius Hirsch after all four in one match. For four players it was their first goals, but they had previously played a match without scoring. Two players scored only three goals in their last match, for Paul Pömpner it was the only goal.

German players have scored most hat-tricks against Finland (seven matches, one of which featured hat-tricks by two players) and against Switzerland (seven times). In seven matches two players scored a hat-trick. Gerd Müller is the only player who scored hat-tricks in two consecutive matches: On 7 and 10 June 1970, he scored in the World Cup matches against Bulgaria and Peru. The two matches on 18 and 26 April 1926, in which initially Josef Pöttinger and then Otto Harder scored three goals, followed immediately after each other. Richard Hofmann is the only player who has succeeded in three consecutive years (1928-1932) in each match a "hat-trick" in the German sense. For Miroslav Klose, the longest time (six years and three months) passed between two German "hat-tricks". In the 1950s, 1980s and 1990s, there was no match in which a player scored at least four goals. Since 1910 German players have score a hat-trick in every decade.

In twelve matches with German hat-tricks, no other German player scored. Additionally Gerd Müller once scored four times in a match without another German scoring. In two matches, there were only the two German "hat-tricks" by two players, both matches ended 6–0. No match in which a player scored at least three goals was lost, but five ended in a draw (three times 3–3, once 4–4 and once 5–5.

List of players who scored goals after substituted (g.a.s)

[edit]

The following list contains the players who scored at least four goals after a substitution. First player who scored a goal after a substitution was Richard Hanke[4] on 2 November 1930, in the match against Norway. He had come on as a substitute for the second half and scored in the 55th minute 1-0 (final score 1:1), at a time when substitutes were rarely practiced. It was his only use in the national team and thus his only goal. In total, 79 players scored 165 goals after substitutions, 21 of them scored only goals after substitutions, including Max Kruse with four, Olaf Marschall with three and Andreas Thom and Patrick Helmes with two goals each. Thom had previously scored 16 goals for East Germany. For 46 players, the goal after a substitute their first international goal, Dieter Müller get three, Thomas Hitzlsperger, Erich Beer and Ronald Worm two goals each. For Dieter Müller it was also the first international match and the gates led first to equalize in EC 1976 Semi final and then to victory. Worm also scored his first two goals in his first international match. The final after substitution goal was scored by Lars Stindl in the 2–2 draw against France on 14 November 2017, ten minutes after his substitution in the third minute of additional time.[5] With 41 substitutions, Lukas Podolski is the most-substituted player. The most successful scorer in world championships is André Schürrle with three goals (2014) in front of Rudi Völler, who scored two goals in 1986 after substitutions. Best scorer at European Championships was Dieter Müller with three goals ahead of Oliver Bierhoff, who scored two goals in 1996 after substitution. Both scored their goal after substitution in one match.

Once two players (Torsten Frings and Lukas Podolski) scored penalties in the same match, against Luxembourg in 2006,[6] and once two shooters could not convert their penalties in the same match.

The most successful penalty taker is Michael Ballack, who scored 10 times from 11 occasions. The player with the most unsuccessful penalties is Jürgen Klinsmann, who could not convert three of six penalties. 28 penalties were converted by a captain, most often by Lothar Matthäus, who converted 7 penalties as captain.

Penalty shoot-out

[edit]

The Germany national team has had eight matches go to penalty shootouts; the team has won six of them and lost two. Germany (4) and Argentina (5) are the only teams to have won a shootout four or more times in a World Cup. Argentina suffered their only defeat in a penalty shootout at a World Cup against Germany; Germany is thus the only team ever to have had more than one penalty shootout at a World Cup with a 100% win rate.

The most successful German penalty takers in shootouts are Andreas Brehme, Pierre Littbarski, Lothar Matthäus and Olaf Thon, with two penalties each, though Matthäus does not have a perfect record. Harald Schumacher is the most successful goalkeeper with four penalty saves. Sepp Maier (1976) and Eike Immel (1988) are the only goalkeepers who could not save a penalty in a penalty shoot-out. There have been four times when all German penalty takers were successful; in three cases, only four German shooters had to participate due to the outcome already having been decided. In two cases (1982 and 1996) an additional sixth German penalty taker secured victory, in 2016 the ninth penalty taker - Jonas Hector - scored the decisive penalty.
