Rudolf "Rudi" Weinhofer (born 7 May 1962) is an Austrian former footballer who played at both professional and international levels as a midfielder.
Weinhofer began his professional career in 1980 with Rapid Vienna, and made over 150 league appearances for the club over the next eight seasons.[1] During the Second Round of the 1984–85 European Cup Winners' Cup, in a match against Scottish side Celtic, Weinhofer claimed to have been hit and injured by an object thrown by Celtic's fans; UEFA ordered the match to be replayed.[2] Rapid progressed at Celtic's expense, and eventually reached the 1985 European Cup Winners' Cup Final – a match which Weinhofer played in – before losing to Everton.
After leaving Rapid in 1988, Weinhofer later played for First Vienna FC, St. Pölten, and Stockerau.[1]
Weinhofer earned four caps for the Austrian national side between 1986 and 1987.[1]
From 2009, Weinhofer worked as a benefits claim checker for the Austrian Health Service.[3]
