Chat live with Austria's Herzog

The only Austrian to make over 100 appearances for his national team, Andreas Herzog will join the euro2008.com chatroom at 10.15CET on Sunday. Join us then to put your questions about the draw for the final tournament of UEFA EURO 2008™ to our guest.

103 caps
Herzog made his debut on 6 April 1988 in a 2-2 draw away to Greece. He would go on to make 103 appearances for Austria, scoring on 26 occasions. At club level, Herzog spent six years in three stints with SK Rapid Wien as well as a short stint with First Vienna FC, but he also played nine years in Germany, eight of those with Werder Bremen and one season with FC Bayern München. Before returning for one year with Rapid, Herzog finished his playing career in the United States with the Los Angeles Galaxy in 2004. With 450 combined appearances in the Austrian and German Bundesliga, Herzog scored 106 goals.

Honours
A two-time German Cup winner, he also won the German Bundesliga in the 1992/93 season with Bremen. His greatest European achievement came at the end of the 1995/96 season when he was a member of the Bayern side that won the UEFA Cup. He was named Austrian player of the year in 1992. Why not ask Austria's UEFA EURO 2008™ ambassador about his nation's preparations for the finals in six months time, or about how Austria are gearing up to welcome participants and fans in June 2008.
