In the wake of the
Dynamo Dresden (1993/94)
Marschall moved to his native Saxony because he had signed with SG Dynamo Dresden, which played in the Bundesliga. He followed Siegfried "Siggi" Held, who had been hired there as a coach. In his first game with Dynamo, Marschall met his former club, which had since been renamed VfB Leipzig. Here he was successful with a triple pack (result 3:3). So far (2020), only six other players have managed this feat of scoring three goals in their Bundesliga debut.[8] In total, he scored 11 goals in 32 games in his first Bundesliga season. He was by far the most successful goalscorer in his team and achieved relegation with Dresden, although the team had been deducted four points by the DFB. For financial reasons, the club sold the striker after just one year to runners-up 1. FC Kaiserslautern.[9]
1 FC Kaiserslautern (1994–2002)
In 1994, he joined 1. FC Kaiserslautern and established himself as one of the elite scorers in the Bundesliga. He won the DFB-Pokal in 1996 and in 1998 the Bundesliga title.[10] Marschall was the Bundesliga second-leading goal-scorer in the 1997–98 season, as he led Kaiserslautern to the title.[11]
By signing Marschall for 2.8 million marks, FCK made the most expensive purchase in the club's history to date.
After direct resurgence in 1997, he won the German championship in
From this point on, the striker could no longer build on his successful times. After three mediocre seasons (1999/00 to 2001/02 he only scored seven goals in 47 games) and the loss of his regular place in 2000/01 to the strike duo
At the end of his career, Marshall had an offer from Al-Ittihad in Qatar. A contract did not materialize.[25]
Marschall played for FCK until 2002. He then worked in several capacities at the club, currently (2019) as a scout.[26]
International career
From 1985 to 1989 he played four times (no goal) for the East German national team. He made his debut on 6 February 1985 in East Germany's 3–2 victory over Ecuador.[27] After reunification, he played for the German national team in 1994 and from 1997 to 1999. He scored three goals in 13 appearances. He played his first game for the DFB and his only one in 1994 on October 12 in a 0–0 friendly against Hungary. Marschall came on for Fredi Bobic in the 85th minute of the game. Looking back on a remarkable scoring record in 1997–98, Marschall was nominated for the German squad. He took part in the 1998 FIFA World Cup in France with the national team.[28] He was used here once; in the quarterfinals against Croatia he came on for Dietmar Hamann in the 79th minute when the score was 0–1 (result: 0–3).[29]
