Ulrich "Ulli" Schulze (born 25 December 1947) is a Germanfootball manager and former player. Agoalkeeper, he made one appearance for theEast Germany national team.
Schulze grew up in the small municipality of Darlingerode nearWernigerode. In 1954 he began to play football at local club SG Darlingerode. When he was 13 years old, Schulze joined nearby clubBSGLok Halberstadt. Four years later, in 1964, Schulze moved toDDR-Oberliga sideSC Leipzig. Here he won ten call-ups to the youth national team and in the1966–67 season he played his first senior season with the club that had been reformed as 1. FC Lokomotive Leipzig in the meantime. After 14 Oberliga matches, Schulze moved to 1. FC Magdeburg for the1968–69 season where he would alternate withHans-Georg Moldenhauer until finally establishing himself as regular goalkeeper in the1971–72 season. With 1. FC Magdeburg, Schulze won three Oberliga championships, won the 1973FDGB-Pokal and was in the Magdeburg team that beatA.C. Milan in theUEFA Cup Winners' Cupon 8 May 1974, winning the competition.
After 138 Oberliga matches for Magdeburg Schulze moved to second-tier side BSG Stahl Blankenburg where he ended his career in 1982.
On 12 October 1974, Schulze played in theEuropean Championships qualifier againstIceland in Magdeburg, a 1-all draw.[1] He earned this call-up asJürgen Croy's back-up by good performances in the week before. But asHans-Ulrich Grapenthin soon took over the role as back-up goalkeeper, Schulze never earned another call-up.
After his playing days were over, Schulze took over managing Stahl Blankenburg, staying with the club until 1985, when he took over Stahl Thale. In 1987, he won promotion to the second-tierDDR-Liga, but soon thereafter left forWismut Aue, an Oberliga club he managed until December 1989. FollowingGerman reunification he managedSD Croatia Berlin,Lok Stendal andTSG Neustrelitz. In 2006, he went abroad and briefly managed theAlbanian clubKS Vllaznia Shkodër. His last job to date was managing the U19 team of 1. FC Neubrandenburg 04 that competes in the second-highest youth league.
