Uwe Seeler being honoured Bundesliga

Uwe Seeler was the strong and silent type German master strategist, who adjusted to the needs of his team. The German Seeler, a short and stocky figure played as an inside forward but possessed a ferocious shot that could surprise the best of goalkeepers. The player was his country's most prolific scorer until the arrival of Gerd Muller.

Seeler played in four World Cups between 1958 and 1970, appeared in 21 Cup matches which were a record until fellow countryman Lothar Matthaus upstaged it in 1998. The Germans made the semifinals in '58, the quarterfinals in '62, the final in '66 and finished third in '70. He netted in each of his four appearances at a World Cup and had a total tally of 9 goals at World Cups.

Seeler made the last of his 72 international appearances against Hungary in Nuremberg in 1970, finishing with 43 goals.
