‘Rudi recounts’…: Vollborn on Bayer 04 June highlights

Rüdiger Vollborn has been at the club for nearly 40 years, he has the record number of Bundesliga appearances for the club (401) and is the only Bayer 04 player to have won both the UEFA Cup (1988) and the DFB Cup (1993). And the Berliner stayed with the Werkself after ending his impressive playing career as he worked as a goalkeeping coach for the following nine years. Vollborn now works under the Bayer Cross as a fan liaison officer and club archivist. From February 2021, the personalised Black and Red lexicon takes Werkself fans under the heading of 'Rudi recounts...' on a brief trip through the history of Bayer 04 every month...

Vollborn looks back at goals, matches, personalities and stories away from the pitch from the Bayer 04 club history. For the month of June, the Leverkusen legend includes highly interesting TV-highlights of avoiding relegation on the penultimate Bundesliga matchday in 1980/81 plus the the final clash from the 1992/93 campaign where Ulf Kirsten ended up as equal top goalscorer.

Also for the month of June: Photographic material from a special league title for SV Bayer in 1956 plus video highlights of the promotion matches to the Second Bundesliga North in 1973. Click HERE for the articles.
