[edit]Bjerregaard played for AGF between 1962 and 1966, where he was a dangerous striker in the Danish 1. Division. He was most often paired with Henning Enoksen. He won silver medals in the Danish cup in 1964, and bronze medals in 1962.[2] In the 1965 season he was joint top scorer, shared with Per Petersen, who played for B 1903.
Rapid Vienna
[edit]In 1966 he joined Austrian Rapid Vienna, where he turned profesional. He won the Austrian championship twice and the Austrian cup three times. In 1968 he was the topscorer in the Austrian Bundesliga, and in 1968 and 1970 he was named as the player of the year in Austrian football.[3]
His grand achievement was an equalising goal against Real Madrid on 20 November 1968 at Estadio Santiago Bernabéu. The Austrians had won the first match 1-0 and was trailing away. Even though Real Madrid won the match, Rapid Vienna advanced on the away goals rule.[4]
