Biography
Introduction
Fritz Balogh (16 December 1920 – 15 January 1951) was a German footballer. His first club was DSK Preßburg (Bratislava). In 1941, he joined Hertha BSC as a wartime guest player.
After the Second World War, Balogh played as a forward for VfL Neckarau. On 22 November 1950 he participated in his first and only international in the German national team, a 1-0 victory against Switzerland. This became the only national-level appearance from a player playing for VfL Neckarau.
Balogh fell from a train when returning from a match against Bayern Munich on 14 January 1951. He succumbed to his injuries a day later.
