From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Oliver Reck (born February 27, 1965 in Frankfurt am Main) is a German football goalkeeper, who played mostly for Kickers Offenbach, Werder Bremen and Schalke 04.
He played for Germany national football team and won bronze medal at the 1988 Olympic Games and won the Euro 1996. He earned only one cap, a 9-1 win against Liechtenstein just before Euro 1996.
Although Oliver Kahn holds the record for most matches without conceding goals in the Bundesliga, at 180 in a total of 515 matches, Reck is the most effective goalkeeper, not conceding a goal in 173 of 471 matches. His "effectivity rate" is 0.367, versus Kahn's 0.349.
After retiring as a player in Schalke 04, he became the goalkeeping coach in the same club.
