"70 Years of Schneckerl": Austria Family Celebrated Prohaska

With an emotional gesture, the Austria family honored their footballer of the century, Herbert Prohaska, on Sunday. Before the Bundesliga home game against Wolfsberger AC, fans, former teammates, and the club celebrated the 70th birthday anniversary of the violet icon.

Austria Family and Ancelotti Congratulated Prohaska on His 70th

The Austria fan curve presented a large-scale choreography with the inscription "70 Years Schneckerl." The stadium rose as companions like Toni Polster and Karl Daxbacher presented the celebrant with a birthday cake and personal gifts.

A special highlight was a greeting message from Carlo Ancelotti, currently the head coach of Brazil. The Italian was a teammate of Prohaska at AS Roma in the 1982/83 season – a time both still fondly remember.

Herbert Prohaska turned 70 on Friday, August 8. With his style of play, he not only shaped Austria but also the Austrian national team and international football.
