hans-peter briegel

hans-peter briegel -lrb- born 11 october 1955 in rodenbach , west germany -rrb- is a former german footballer and manager .
one of the most popular german players in his days , hans-peter briegel 's original sport was athletics , being successful in various events such as long jump -lrb- personal best : 7 metres 50 cm -rrb- , triple jump and specifically in heptathlon-forerunner pentathlon .
briegel gained his best result as an athlete in decathlon , but the son of a farmer struggled to compete properly in javelin throw and the high jump .
