History
Under the Third Reich German football was reorganized into sixteen top-flight divisions known as Gauliga. Planitz played in the Gauliga Sachsen where they struggled early on, but improved steadily until in the early 40's they regularly duelled rivals Dresdner SC for the division title, taking the prize in 1942. In the aftermath of World War II most German organizations, including sports and football clubs, were dissolved by the Allied authorities. The club was re-established in 1945 as SG Planitz, but like many other teams in Soviet-occupied East Germany would undergo a number of name changes. They were first renamed ZSG Horch Zwickau in 1949 and the next year were known, in quick succession, as BSG Horch Zwickau and then BSG Motor Zwickau. In 1968 the club merged with Aktivist Karl Marx Zwickau to become BSG Sachsenring Zwickau, and finally took on their current name in 1990. Nazi Germany, or the Third Reich, commonly refers to Germany in the years 1933–1945, when it was under the firm control of the totalitarian and fascist ideology of the Nazi Party, with the Führer Adolf Hitler as dictator. ...

In 1948, SG Planitz won a championship organized in the eastern occupation zone by the Freie Deutsche Jugend – the youth wing of the communist party – by defeating SG Freiimfelde Halle 1:0 after a convincing march through the earlier playoff rounds. Plans to have the winner take part in playoffs toward a national final against the champions of the various western occupation zones, in what would become West Germany, fell victim to early Cold War tensions when the Soviets denied Zwichau permission to travel to Stuttgart to take on eventual champions 1.FC Nürnberg in a scheduled quarter-final match. The following year the club had a poor season and failed to qualify for the playoffs. 1948 (MCMXLVIII) was a leap year starting on Thursday (the link is to a full 1948 calendar). ...

The unfortunate Dresdners had run afoul of communist authorities which regarded the club as being too bourgeoisie. Zwickau played a viciously physical game and, abetted by the referee who refused the homeside substitutions and eventually reduced Friedrichstadt to an 8-man squad, "won" the match 5:1. Unhappy Dresden Friedrichstadt fans invaded the field several times, and at game's end, badly beat a Zwickau player. Mounted police were called in to restore order. Within weeks the Dresden side was dismantled and the players scattered to other teams: most eventually fled to the west, many to play for Hertha BSC Berlin. What occurred in this match foreshadowed what would become commonplace in East German football as highly placed politicians or bureaucrats manipulated clubs and matches for various purposes. Bourgeoisie (RP [], GA []) in modern use refers to the wealthy or propertied social class in a capitalist society. ...

Zwickau remained competitive through the early 50's but was unable to claim another national championship as in the following decades they settled into the role of a mid or lower-table side. They enjoyed a measure of success in play for the FDGB-Pokal, or East German Cup: after a losing cup final appearance in 1954 they earned wins in 1963, 1967, and 1975. Internationally, the club enjoyed a good European Cup run in 1975, advancing to the semi-finals with wins over Panathinaikos Athens, AC Florenz, and Celtic Glasgow before going out against eventual cup winner RSC Anderlecht. By the early 80's they had descended to play in the second tier DDR-Liga, making just intermittent reappearances in the DDR-Oberliga. The FDGB Cup (Freier Deutscher Gewerkschaftsbund Pokal or Free German Trade Union Federation Cup) was an elimination football tournament held annually in the former East Germany. ...
