Just Göbel


Dr. Marius Jan "Just" Göbel was a Dutch amateur football player.
Göbel who played for Vitesse Arnhem, succeeded Reinier Beeuwkes as the Dutch national goalkeeper in 1911. He was known for being the first Dutch keeper trying to catch the ball rather than stomp it away. He played 18 matches for the Dutch team, being best remembered for his numerous saves during the 2-1 win over England's amateurs and his bronze medal in the football tournament of the 1912 Summer Olympics.
During the First World War, he studied medicine. The West Stand at Vitesse's GelreDome was named in his honour in 2016.
