Alfred Riedl (born 2 November 1949) is an Austrian football manager and a former striker. He was most recently manager of Indonesia national football team. His last coaching was with PSM Makassar.
Playing career
Club career
He used to play for FK Austria Wien when he left Austria for the Belgian club Sint-Truiden at the age of 22. After he played eight seasons in Belgian First Division (two with Sint-Truiden, two with Royal Antwerp and four with Standard Liège), Riedl enjoyed a brief spell at FC Metz in France. He came back to Austria after a single season, to play for Grazer AK, and then at Wiener Sportclub and VfB Admira Wacker Mödling. He finished twice as top scorer of the Belgian First Division.
International career
Riedl has been capped four times for the Austria national football team, making his debut in April 1975 against Hungary.
Coaching career
As a manager, Riedl has coached Olympique Khouribga (Morocco, 1993–94), Al-Zamalek (Egypt, 1994–95), Al Salmiya (Kuwait, 2001–03), and many national teams, including Austria (1990–92), Liechtenstein (1997–98), Palestine (2004–05), Vietnam (1998–2001, 2003–04, 2005–07), and Laos (2009–10). In the 2007 AFC Asian Cup, he has coached Vietnam to a 2–0 victory over UAE and help the team to get to the quarterfinal for the first time in history. Unfortunately, in late 2007, after the team's disappointing performance in the SEA Games 2007 competition, he was fired and replaced by the Portuguese coach Henrique Calisto. On the October 2008, he returned to Vietnam to coach the Hải Phòng soccer club. However, after only three matches with poor performance, he was dismissed.[1] On 9 July 2009, he signed a contract as head coach of Laos, the contract runs two years.[2]
Indonesia
On 4 May 2010, the well-travelled Alfred Riedl has been named the new coach of Indonesia's national and under-23 sides. The former Austria, Vietnam and Palestine coach will begin his new job later on the week, the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) said on Tuesday on their website.[3] He led the Indonesian national team to the 2010 AFF Suzuki Final but lost to Malaysia on 2–4 aggregate score. Then suddenly, on 13 July 2011, he lost his job because of a so-called "contract-dispute",[4] after a highly publicized political power struggle within the Football Association of Indonesia, and was replaced by Wim Rijsbergen.[5]
After a return to Laos as technical director and Belgian club Visé as head of youth development, Riedl was reappointed as Indonesia national team head coach on December 2013, signing a 3-year contract.[6][7][8]
