Ulrich Møller (born 11 December 1962) is a Norwegian former footballer, who played his entire senior career for Molde. He played as a defender and was capped twice for Norway.
Career
[edit]Møller was born in Molde, but was training with the Dutch club FC Den Haag and played youth matches for the club at the age of 16. After a half year in the Netherlands, he returned to Molde and made his senior debut for Molde in the First Division on 15 May 1980, in the home match against Start.[1]
While Asbjørn Halvorsen is the youngest captain in a Norwegian Cup final,[2] Møller became the youngest captain in a Norwegian Cup final at Ullevaal Stadion[3] when Molde lost the cup final against Brann in 1982.[4]
Møller was the captain of Molde in their three first finals, but had to wait till 1994 before he could lift the trophy. That final was his last match as a player.[1] Møller is the player with the fifth-highest number of top division appearances for Molde, with 250 matches spanning from 1980 to 1993.[5]
He was player-coach for Molde between 1991 and 1993,[6] and has later worked in the club's administrative staff as marketing director among other things.[7]
International career
[edit]Ulrich Møller was capped two times for Norway in 1987.[8] On 23 September 1987, he made his debut against Iceland in a European Championships qualifying match Norway lost 0–1 at Ullevaal Stadion.[9] One month later, Møller got his second and last cap when Norway lost 1–3 away to East Germany on 28 October 1987.
