west germany's match-winning hero in the uefa euro 1980 final in rome against belgium, hrubesch scored two goals, the second a trademark bullet header, in the 89th minute. it was a day of redemption for the big hamburger sv centre forward who a few weeks earlier had hobbled around the field with an ankle injury as his club lost the european champion clubs' cup final to nottingham forest fc. a latecomer to the international scene, hrubesch had only been called into the west germany squad after klaus fischer broke his leg, and the game against belgium was only his fifth international appearance. he would play for west germany 21 times, scoring 6 goals, his last match being the losing 1982 fifa world cup final against italy.
