Julian Reinard (born 5 March 1983) is a German former professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper.[2]
Reinard first appeared in the Bundesliga on 21 March 2004 while SC Freiburg's first and second keepers had been injured. A year later, media and trainer looked upon him as the future number one of Freiburg,[3] but his disastrous effort during a 0–7 defeat against Bayern Munich and the following massive public criticism terminated these ambitions.[4]
While plying his trade at Hakoah Amidar/Ramat Gan on 23 October 2006 he became the first German footballer ever to play a professional match in Israel.[5] Due to problems with his groin he quit Ramat Gan and, after a brief spell at FC Wil was without a team.[6]
