Peter Burgstaller (13 February 1964 – 23 November 2007) was an Austrian football goalkeeper.
He played for Favoritner AC (until 1984), Wacker Innsbruck (1984–1986), Grazer AK (1986–1987), VfB Mödling (1987–1988), Austria Salzburg (1988–1991), SV Ried (1991–1992) and finally a second spell at Austria Salzburg before retiring from the game in 1993.
After retiring from the game, Burgstaller coached lower division side FC Puch during the 1995–96 season, and later founded an event agency in Salzburg.
Burgstaller was shot and killed on a golf course in Durban, South Africa on 23 November 2007.[1] Police suspect the murder was the result of a robbery, as Burgstaller's mobile phone and golfing equipment were missing at the scene of the crime. At the time of his murder, delegates were attending the World Cup qualifying draw in nearby Durban, South Africa.
Three men were arrested after the murder.[2] On 30 October 2009 two of the arrested men were convicted of murder and of robbery with aggravating circumstances. They received lengthy prison sentences.[3]
