Gottfried Erik Fuchs (3 May 1889 – 25 February 1972), also known as Godfrey Fuchs,[2] was a German Olympic footballer. He scored a then-world record 10 goals for the Germany national football team in a 16–0 win against Russia at the 1912 Olympics. He left Germany to escape the Holocaust, as he was Jewish, and ultimately emigrated to Canada.[3]
