He combined his career with studying Mechanical Engineering at Paderborn University, and then working for Benteler International.[3] (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4In 2004, Schmidt was made player-manager of Delbr\u00fccker SC in the fifth-tier Verbandsliga. Two years later, with the team now one division up into the Oberliga, he retired from playing but stayed on for one further year solely as manager.[3]Having to balance the commitments of his marriage and young children, as well as his engineering profession, Schmidt only wanted to manage for one season but stayed for three. He decided to leave football for good, but was drawn back by interest from fellow Oberliga team SC Preu\u00dfen M\u00fcnster, for whom he quit his engineering job.[3] He was appointed manager in May 2007, effective 1 July,[4] and was sacked on 21 March 2010.[5] Schmidt’s contract stated that the club would find him an engineering job in the city of M\u00fcnster should he be dismissed, but by that stage he was ready to commit solely to football management.[3]SC Paderborn 07[edit]Schmidt became manager of 2. Bundesliga club SC Paderborn 07 on 1 July 2011.[6] On his professional debut 16 days later, the team won 2\u20131 at Hansa Rostock.[7] On 30 July, the team won 10\u20130 in the first round of the DFB-Pokal away to Rot Weiss Ahlen,[8] though the second round was a 4\u20130 loss at SpVgg Greuther F\u00fcrth.[9] His sole league season at the Benteler-Arena ended in 5th place.[10]Red Bull Salzburg[edit] On 24 June 2012, Schmidt was announced as the new manager of Austrian Football Bundesliga reigning champions Red Bull Salzburg, after Ricardo Moniz. His assistant manager became Oliver Glasner.[11] The team were eliminated from the UEFA Champions League second qualifying round by Luxembourg’s F91 Dudelange in July, on the away goals rule after a 4\u20134 aggregate draw.[12] Domestically, they came runners-up five points behind FK Austria Wien, and lost 2\u20131 in the Austrian Cup semi-finals to shock overall winners third-tier FC Pasching.[13] (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4In 2013\u201314, Schmidt led Salzburg to the double, with an 18-point league advantage over SK Rapid Wien sealing the league title with eight games remaining.[14] The team won 4\u20132 in the cup final over SKN St. P\u00f6lten.[15]Bayer Leverkusen[edit]Bayer Leverkusen hired Schmidt on 25 April 2014, replacing the sacked Sami Hyypi\u00e4. His two-year contract was effective from the start of the 2014\u201315 season.[14]On Schmidt’s debut, the team won 6\u20130 away to SV Alemannia Waldalgesheim in the first round of the cup with five goals from Stefan Kie\u00dfling on 15 August;[16] eight days later he won 2\u20130 at neighbours Borussia Dortmund on his Bundesliga bow.[17] He finished his first season in fourth, lost the cup semi-final on penalties to Bayern Munich, and was eliminated from the last 16 of the Champions League on the same method against Atl\u00e9tico Madrid.[18][19]After his first season, Schmidt signed a new contract until 2019.[20] On 21 February 2016, he was sent off by referee Felix Zwayer in a game against Dortmund after disputing a free kick that led to the opponents scoring the only goal of the match. He initially refused to leave, causing Zwayer to suspend the game and lead the players off the field, culminating in an eight-minute delay before the match resumed without Schmidt on the field.[21] The 2015\u201316 season ended in third with Champions League qualification.[22] (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4On 5 March 2017, Schmidt was sacked by sporting director Rudi V\u00f6ller following a 6\u20132 loss at Dortmund which left Leverkusen in 9th place.[23]Beijing Guoan[edit]In June 2017, Schmidt joined Chinese Super League side Beijing Sinobo Guoan on a two-and-a-half-year contract.[24] He won the Chinese FA Cup in 2018.[25]On 31 July 2019, he was sacked. Hundreds of fans came to the airport for an emotional farewell when he left.[26][27][28]PSV[edit]Schmidt became the new head coach of PSV on 11 March 2020, on a contract until 2022.[29] His team came second, 16 points behind Ajax in his first season, and faced the same team in the 2021 Johan Cruyff Shield which they won 4\u20130 on 7 August.[30] Also against the Amsterdam-based club, PSV won the 2022 KNVB Cup Final 2\u20131 on 17 April.[31]Having not agreed an extension to his initial deal at PSV, Schmidt left at its conclusion.[32]Benfica[edit] On 18 May 2022, Schmidt signed a two-year deal with Primeira Liga club Benfica. He became the second German to be appointed as manager of the club, after Jupp Heynckes.[33] Benfica began the 2022\u201323 season by winning their first 13 matches across Liga and Champions League (qualifying and group stages), marking the club’s best start to a season in 39 years.[34] On 21 October, Schmidt won his first O Cl\u00e1ssico, ending Benfica’s nine-match winless run against rivals Porto.[35] Benfica’s form made the team unbeatable for 29 matches, before a 3\u20130 away defeat to Braga on 30 December.[36] In Europe, Benfica’s Champions League campaign amassed several records: they surpassed the Portuguese record for consecutive matches without losing in the competition,[37] they became the first Portuguese team to reach the quarter-finals twice in a row, and they achieved their biggest home and away wins (excluding qualifying stages), 5\u20131 against Club Brugge and 1\u20136 against Maccabi Haifa, respectively.[38]Managerial statistics[edit]As of match played 2 April 2023Honours[edit]Red Bull SalzburgBeijing GuoanPSVIndividualReferences[edit]^ a b “Roger Schmidt”.
