Michael Lorkowski (born 26 February 1955 inHamburg) is a Germanfootball manager and former player.
His greatest achievement was winning the1991–92 DFB-Pokal withHannover 96, while the team was still in the2. Bundesliga. In an unlikely triumph, they defeatedBorussia Mönchengladbach on penalties on 23 May 1992 to become the first - and thus far, only - non-Bundesliga side to lift the trophy.
He also achieved three promotions to the 2. Bundesliga withFC St. Pauli (1984 and 1986) andVfB Lübeck (1995).
In recent years, he has devoted himself more to other pursuits. He has worked as a sports teacher at diploma level and also explored his love of sailing by captaining voyages off the coast ofSchleswig-Holstein.[1]
