Yes, I'd like to see videos dispalyed.
Hennecken was the driving force in the Bayer 04 attack with his dribbles and he was a feared free kick and penalty specialist; feared because of the strength of his shots, which brought him a second nickname alongside 'Fredi' of 'iron foot'. He was an important part of the war title-winning team in the Regional League West in 1968 and he also scored five times for his club in the Bundesliga play-offs in the same season. Hennecken also scored three goals in the dead rubber against Arminia Hannover.
You can watch the video of the highlights of that game. At the anniversary celebrations in Leverkusen in 2018 (50 years Regional League West league title, 30 years UEFA Cup win and 25 years DFB Cup win) he was able to witness the choreography alongside Bayer 04 legends Ulf Kirsten, Markus Happe, Franco Foda and Rüdiger Vollborn from the main stand at the BayArena. Fredi will be 80, a warhorse of our football history. Bayer 04 wish him many happy returns.
In this video you can watch impressive and important goals in the history of Bayer 04 in the month of October. It is not always about the beauty of the goals but also about remembering special games and players.
